You have been asked to estimate the cost of 100 prefabricated structures to be sold to a local school district. Each structure provides 1,000 square feet offloor space, with 8-feet ceilings. In 1999, you produced 70 similar structures consistingof the same materials and having the same ceiling height, but each provided only 800square feet of floor space. The material cost for each structure was $25,000 in 1999, andthe cost capacity factor is 0.65. The cost index values for 1999 and 2006 are 200 and 289,respectively. The estimated manufacturing cost for the first 1,000-square-foot structureis $12,000. Assume a learning curve of 88% and use the cost of the 50th structure asyour standard time for estimating manufacturing cost. Estimate the total material costand the total manufacturing cost for the 100 prefabricated structures.
College Creations, Inc (CC), builds a loft that is easily adaptable to most dorm rooms or apartments and can be assembled into a variety of configurations. Each loft is sold for $500, and the cost to produce one loft is $300, including all parts and labor. CC has fixed costs of $100,000. A.What happens if CC produces nothing? B.Now, assume CC produces and sells one unit (loft). What are their financial results? C.Now, what do you think would happen if they produced and sold 501 units? D.How many units would CC need to sell in order to break even? E.How many units would CC need to sell if they wanted to have a pretax profit of $50,000?

Manufacturing Aggregate Planning. Manufacturers Inc. (MI) currently has a labor force of 10, which can produce 500 units per period. The cost of labor is now $2,400 per period, per employee. The company has a long-standing rule that does not allow overtime. In addition, the product cannot be subcontracted due to the specialized 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 $5,000 to hire an employee and $5,000 to lay off an employee. Inventory-carrying costs are $100 per unit remaining at the end of each period. The inventory level at the beginning of period 1 is 300 units. The forecast demand in each of 3 periods is given in the table below. Aggregate Demand Period 1 = 730 Period 2 = 620 Period 3 = 420 a) Compute the costs of the chase strategy. b) Compute the costs for a level strategy. c) Compare the two strategies
A local firm manufactures children’s toys. The projected demand over the next four months for one particular model of toy robot is (given) Assume that a normal workday is eight hours. Hiring costs are $350 per worker and firing costs (including severance pay) are $850 per worker. Holding costs are $4.00 per aggregate unit held per month. Assume that it requires an average of 1 hour and 40 minutes for one worker to assemble one toy. Shortages are not permitted. Assume that the ending inventory for June was 600 of these toys and the manager wishes to have at least 800 units on hand at the end of October. Assume that the current workforce level is 35 workers. Find the optimal plan by formulating as a linear program.
