Problem 4 (JIT Purchasing, Relevant Benefits, Relevant Costs) The Josefina Corporation is an automotive supplier that uses automatic turning machines to manufacture precision parts from steel bars. Josefina's inventory of raw steel averages P600,000. JC Tan, president of Josefina, and Patrick Argante, Josefina's controller, are concerned about the costs of carrying inventory. The steel supplier is willing to supply steel in smaller lots at no additional charge. Patrick Argante identified the following effects of adopting a JIT inventory program to virtually eliminate steel inventory: Without scheduling any overtime, lost sales due to stockouts would increase by 35,000 units per year. However, by incurring overtime premiums of P40,000 per year, the increase in lost sales could be reduced to 20,000 units. This would be the maximum amount of overtime that would be feasible for Josefina. Two warehouses presently used for steel bar storage would no longer be needed. Josefina rents one…
