- Assume that the moving activity has an expected cost of 80,000. Expected direct labor hours are 20,000, and expected number of moves is 40,000. The best activity for moving is a. 4 per move. b. 1.33 per hour-move. c. 4 per hour. d. 2 per move. e. e None of these.(Appendix 11A) Cycle Time, Velocity, Conversion Cost The theoretical cycle time for a product is 30 minutes per unit. The budgeted conversion costs for the manufacturing cell are 2,700,000 per year. The total labor minutes available are 600,000. During the year, the cell was able to produce 1.5 units of the product per hour. Suppose also that production incentives exist to minimize unit product costs. Required: 1. Compute the theoretical conversion cost per unit. 2. Compute the applied conversion cost per unit (the amount of conversion cost actually assigned to the product). 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Discuss how this approach to assigning conversion costs can improve delivery time performance.See Cornerstone Exercise 20.4. Fisher Company has three sequential processes: cutting, welding, and assembly. Assume that the optimal mix is Component A = 0 units per week; and Component B = 30 units per week. Demand is uniformly spread out over the five-day work week. Fisher requires a 2.5-day buffer. Required: 1. Identify the drummer, the rate of production, the time buffer, and the rope. 2. Illustrate the DBR structure of Fisher Company. 3. What if the Welding Department was allowed or encouraged to produce at capacity? What effect will this have on work-in-process inventories?
- A manager must decide which type of machine to buy, A, B, or C. Machine costs (per individual machine) are as follows: Machine Cost A $ 60,000 B $ 50,000 C $ 60,000 Product forecasts and processing times on the machines are as follows: PROCCESSING TIME PER UNIT (minutes) Product AnnualDemand A B C 1 16,000 3 4 4 2 10,000 6 5 1 3 15,000 1 3 6 4 17,000 5 3 4 a. Assume that only purchasing costs are being considered. Compute the total processing time required for each machine type to meet demand, how many of each machine type would be needed, and the resulting total purchasing cost for each machine type. The machines will operate 10 hours a day, 240 days a year. (Enter total processing times as whole numbers. Round up machine quantities to the next higher whole number. Compute total purchasing costs using these rounded machine quantities. Enter the resulting total purchasing cost as a whole number. Omit the "$" sign.) Total…A manager must decide which type of machine to buy: A, B or C. Machine fixed costs are: Machine Cost/year A $50,000 B $60,000 C $90,000 The company makes 4 products.

- Q18. A process control manager is considering two robots to improve materials-handling capacity in the production of rigid shaft couplings that make dissimilar drive components. Robot X has a first cost of $76,000, an annual M&O cost of $31,000, and $42,000 salvage value, and it will improve revenues by $96,000 per year. Robot Y has a first cost of $146,000, an annual M&O cost of $28,000, and $47,000 salvage value, and it will increase revenues by $121,000 per year. The company’s MARR is 46% per year, and it uses a 3-year study period for economic evaluations. Calculate the incremental ROR, and identify the robot the manager should select. The incremental ROR is The manager should select robot ?QUESTION 4 An organisation manufactures a single product.
