A company produces 12,000 units of which 300 are spoiled units because the process, even though carefully and efficiently executed is unable to produce good units 100% of the time. Another 50 units are spoiled because machines broke down and there also were operator errors. What is the normal spoilage rate? Answer in decimal format (O.XXXX) and round to four decimal places.

ABC Manufacturing Corp. is using 10,000 units of part no. 300 as a component to assemble one of its products. It costs the company $18 per unit to produce it internally, computed as follows: Direct materials $ 42,000 Direct labor 51,000 Variable overhead 42,000 Fixed overhead 45,000 Total Cost 180,000 An outside vendor has just offered to supply the part for $16 per unit. If the company stops producing this part, one-third of the fixed overhead would be avoided. Should the company make or buy? ( show calculation to support your decision).
Acme Enterprises, a hypothetical company that prepares its financial statements inaccordance with IFRS, manufactures tables. In 2009, the factory produced 900,000finished tables and scrapped 1,000 tables. For the finished tables, raw material costswere €9 million, direct labor conversion costs were €18 million, and productionoverhead costs were €1.8 million. Th e 1,000 scrapped tables (attributable to abnormal waste) had a total production cost of €30,000 (€10,000 raw material costs and€20,000 conversion costs; these costs are not included in the €9 million raw materialand €19.8 million total conversion costs of the finished tables). During the year,Acme spent €1 million for freight delivery charges on raw materials and €500,000 forstoring finished goods inventory. Acme does not have any work-in-progress inventoryat the end of the year. 1. What costs should be included in inventory in 2009?2. What costs should be expensed in 2009?

Pharoah Corp. received an order for 25 automatic mixing machines. Because of the order's exacting specifications, it is anticipated that defective and spoiled work will exceed the normal rate. The materials cost per unit is P80; labor cost, P194; and manufacturing overhead for this order is to be applied at 100% of the labor cost. During production, 5 units were found to be defective and required the following total additional costs: materials, P97, labor, P125, and manufacturing overhead at the 100% rate. On final inspection, 2 units were classified as seconds and sold for P400 each, the proceeds being credited to the order. The purchaser has agreed to accept the 23 machines, although the acceptable units are fewer than the number ordered. What is the unit cost of the completed units?

An industrial company has (20) machines, and every malfunction that costs the company 180 dinars to be repaired includes repair costs and maintenance services. In addition to (0.10) of the working time for each working day, noting that each delay for one working day costs the company (8000) dinars, and the company responsible for the preventive maintenance program provided it after the daily working hours at a cost of (300) dinars per machine, and thus loss can be avoided. The working day, and the holidays possibilities have been estimated as shown in the following table: Required: 1- Calculating the cost of repairing the malfunction during work (remedial maintenance) 2- Calculating the cost of a preventive maintenance policy or program if it is followed every month, and if it is followed every three months. 3- Determine what is best for the company? Do you choose a curative maintenance policy or preventive maintenance? By the body in charge of this?…
Algonac Moldings produces a product made from a metal alloy. Two suppliers, Liebold Metal and Cecil Distributors, supply the alloy. Neither supplier can meet Algonac's typical demand, because of capacity constraints. The material from Liebold is less expensive to buy but more difficult to use, resulting in greater waste. The metal alloy is highly toxic and any waste requires costly handling to avoid environmental accidents. Last year the cost of handling the waste totaled $1,200,000. Additional data from last year’s operations are shown as follows: Liebold Metals Cecil Distributors Amount of material purchased (tons) 64.8 115.2 Amount of waste (tons) 9.0 11.0 Cost of purchases $ 1,488,000 $ 3,312,000 Required: Allocate the cost of the waste handling to the two suppliers based on: Amount of material purchased. Amount of waste. Cost of material purchased. Amount of material purchased. Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. A.)…
