Ashley Technology Incorporated manufactures a scrambling device for cellular telephones. The device’s main component is a delicate part, CT140. CT140 is easily damaged and requires careful handling. Once damaged, it must be discarded. The firm hires only skilled laborers to manufacture and install CT140; however, some are still damaged. Robotic instruments process all other parts. Ashley’s operating data for 2 years are as follows:
| 2022 | 2021 | |
|---|---|---|
| Units manufactured | 800,000 | 1,050,000 |
| Number of CT140 used | 910,000 | 1,060,000 |
| Number of direct labor hours spent | 160,000 | 210,000 |

- An existing robot is used in a commercial material laboratory to handle ceramic samples in the hightemperature environment that is part of several test procedures. Due to changing customer needs, the robot will not meet future service requirements unless it is upgraded at a cost of $2,000. Because of this situation, a new advanced technology robot has been selected for potential replacement of the existing robot. The accompanying estimates have been developed from information provided by some current users of the new robot and data obtained from the manufacturer. The firm’s before-tax MARR is 25% per year. Based on this information,should the existing robot be replaced? Assume that a robot will be needed for an indefinite period.I need some opinions/thoughts on this... A non-destructive test program for an aircraft engine compressor blade made of Ti-6AL-4V titanium alloy can ensure that no flaw greater than 2 mm will exist in the finished part. a) Can this inspection program prevent the occurrence of fast fracture/catastrophic failure? b) Why? I say no, because the test itself can only test the surface and internals of the object but can not ensure: Components needing to be cleaned before and after inspection Sensitivity of inspection can sometimes be affected by the finish of a component. Sometimes there might be a lack of depth sizing On some non-destructive test methods, only relatively non-porous surfaces can be inspected Some test methods require electricity Some can also be affected by variations in magnetic permeability Some tests are only effective on materials that are conductiveRichins Company is considering the acquisition of a computerized manufacturing system. The new system has a built in quality function that increases the control over product specifications. An alarm sounds whenever the product falls outside the programmed specifications. An operator can then make some adjustments on the spot to restore the desired product quality. The system is expected to decrease the number of units scrapped because of poor quality. The system is also expected to decrease the amount of labor inputs needed. The production manager is pushing for the aquisition because he believes that productivity will be greatly enhanced - particularly when it comes to labor and material inputs. Output and input data follow. The data for the computerized system are projections. Current System Computerized System Output (units)…
- Blackburn Inc. uses Otavalo Manufacturing and Piura Company to buy two precision machined parts used in the manufacture of its permanent-magnet motors: Part #625 and Part #827. Consider two activities: testing parts and reordering parts. After the two parts are inserted, testing is done to ensure that the two parts work as intended. Reordering occurs because one or both of the parts have failed the test and it is necessary to replenish part inventories. Activity cost information and other data needed for supplier costing are as follows: I. Activity Costs Caused by Suppliers (testing failures and reordering as a result) Activity Costs Testing parts $4,500,000 Reordering parts 1,125,000 II.

The difference in the two models relates to the required accuracy of the sensor. The Standard model is used for most normal operations while the High-Performance model is used for high-altitude and specialized missions. Before shipment, the two models are passed through a machine that, among other things, certifies the accuracy of the sensor. The company only has one testing machine. The price and costs of the two sensor models are shown here: Standard High-Performance Price per sensor $ 52 $ 96 Variable cost per sensor $ 34 $ 41 Testing hours per sensor 0.04 0.11 The testing machine used for both models has a capacity of 8,250 hours annually. Fixed manufacturing costs are $2,400,000 annually. Required: a. Suppose that the maximum annual unit sales that is possible for Brandon Technology is 250,000 units of the Standard model and 80,000 of the High-Performance model. How many…
