Answer to Problem 1MCQ

a. Correct the defective item and sell them at the regular price.

Explanation of Solution

Incremental revenue:

Incremental revenue refers to the difference in the total revenue earned when the product or service is sold at split-off point and the total revenue earned when the product or service is sold after further processing.

In this case, a company accidently produced 3000 defective items (MP3 Player). These 3000 defective items are offered at a rate of $8 per item by a recycler, and on the other hand these detective items can be fixed at a rate of $10 and could be sold at a regular market price of $19 per item.

The company by reworking those defective items can produce incremental revenue of $11 per unit ($19$8). Since the cost to rework the defective items are $10 per item, and thus the company is better off by $1 per unit when it reworks these products and sells them at the regular price.

From the above explanation it is clear that option b, c and d are incorrect and only option a is correct.

Conclusion

Hence the correct option is option a.
