Luthan Company uses a plantwide predetermined overhead rate of $22.80 per direct labor-hour. This predetermined rate was based on a cost formula that estimated $273,600 of total manufacturing overhead cost for an estimated activity level of 12,000 direct labor- hours. The company incurred actual total manufacturing overhead cost of $267,000 and 12,600 total direct labor-hours during the period. Required: Determine the amount of manufacturing overhead cost that would have been applied to all jobs during the period. Manufacturing overhead applied

Manufacturing Aggregate Planning Manufacturers Inc. (MI) currently has a labor force of 10, which can produce 600 units per period. The labor cost is now $5000 per period per employee. The company has a long-standing rule that does not allow it to make use of any overtime. In addition, the product cannot be subcontracted, due to the specialized nature of the machinery that MI uses to produce it. As a result, MI can only increase/decrease production by hiring or laying off employees. The cost is $10000 to hire or lay off an employee. Inventory carrying costs are $200 per unit for any unsold items at the end of the period. The inventory level at the beginning of period 1 is 400 units. The forecast demand is 700 in period 1,600 in period 2,450 in period 3, 250 in period 4,500 in period 5, and 550 in period 6. a.) Compute the costs of the Chase Demand Strategy. b.) Compute the costs of the Level Strategy c.) Compare the costs of the two strategies. Which one is superior?

There are several types of linear-programming models that exhibit a special structure which can be exploited in the construction of efficient algorithms for solutions to an organisation’s challenges. Efficient production planning is a key condition for a production system’s success, which considers the real-world resource limitations such as budget, time and labour. A study is being conducted to develop linear and goal programming models in an attempt to optimise the daily production outputs of your organisation in producing various product mixes. The three goals considered are: maximising the daily sales profits, minimising overtime, and maximising the utility of machines used in the production process. REQUIRED: You are required to develop an efficient solution through the application of linear and goal programming, to a concisely defined problem through examining a situation in a company of your choice to determine the optimal solution to be implemented.
