Suppose that a manufacturer plans to produce 78,000 units of product duringa year. A lot of size L, to be determined, is to be made periodically, andevery time a lot is made, it is necessary to set up the appropriate machineryand other production facilities before production starts. The set up cost is thena fixed cost incurred for each lot produced and it is determined as $ 200. Whenproduction commences , the cost of making a unit is constant at $ 7.5 per unit.Inventory cost is to be determined on the basis that it costs $ 0.50 per year tocarry one unit in inventory. Also find how many lots the manufacturerwould make per year and each lot would be produced in how manydays ?.

Study the scenario and complete the question that follows:A company that manufactures and sells one single product is currently operating at 85% of full capacityand producing 102 000 units per month. The current total monthly costs of production amount to R330000, of which R75 000 are fixed and are expected to remain unchanged for all levels of activity up to fullcapacity.A new potential customer has expressed interest in taking regular monthly delivery of 12 000 units at aprice of R2.80 per unit.All existing production is sold each month at a price of R3.25 per unit. If the new business is accepted,existing sales are expected to fall by 2 units for every 15 units sold to the new customer.RequiredDetermine the overall increase in monthly profit which would result from accepting the newbusiness.
