Merkley Company, a manufacturer of machine parts, implemented lean manufacturing at the end of 20X1. Three value streams were established: one for new product development and two order fulfillment value streams. One of the value streams set a goal to increase its ROS to 45% of sales by the end of the year. During the year, the value stream made significant improvements in several areas. The Box Scorecard below was prepared, with performance measures for the beginning of the year, midyear, and end of year. Although the members of the value stream were pleased with their progress, they were disappointed in the financial results. They were still far from the targeted ROS of 45%. They were also puzzled as to why the improvements made did not translate into significantly improved financial performance. Required: 1. From the scorecard, what was the focus of the value-stream team for the first 6 months? The second 6 months? What are the implications of these changes? 2. Using information from the scorecard, offer an explanation for why the financial results were not as good as expected.
Last Resort Industries Inc. is a privately held diversified company with five separate divisions organized as investment centers. A condensed income statement for the Specialty Products Division for the past year, assuming no support department allocations, along with asset information is as follows: The manager of the Specialty Products Division was recently presented with the opportunity to add an additional product line, which would require invested assets of 14,400,000. A projected income statement for the new product line is as follows: The Specialty Products Division currently has 27,000,000 in invested assets, and Last Resort Industries Inc.s overall return on investment, including all divisions, is 10%. Each division manager is evaluated on the basis of divisional return on investment. A bonus is paid, in 8,000 increments, for each whole percentage point that the divisions return on investment exceeds the company average.
