Fundamental to all these considerations are measurement issues. Financial measures, in particular, cost
of time needed to perform each sewing operation and therefore the total time required to complete a particular style garment. The estimates are derived from time-and-motion (i.e., industrial engineering) studies and take into account a number of variables, including the speed of each type of sewing machine required for a specific operation, the education/training of each operator, and existing technology used by the assembly workers at SEWMEX.

Difference between Variable & Absorption Costing When it comes to managerial accounting, the way that information is presented can affect decision-making for a business. In a manufacturing environment, companies can use absorption costing or variable costing when accounting for the costs of products produced.

manage what the company manufactures, sells, and to give advice as to where costs can be reduced. 2-3. Three examples of a variable cost are a 12% increase in the production of dresses, which will cause a 12% increase in variable costs. A 10% increase in clothes will cause an 10% increase in variable costs. A 30% increase in labor hours will cause a 30% increase in variable costs. Three examples of a fixed cost are a 12%
Explain the difference between multiple independent variables and multiple levels of independent variables. Which is better? Multiple independent variables and multiple levels of independent variables differences are illustrated below. Multiple independent variables helps in executing more complicated research innovatively with the standard code of practice and each variables are determined effectively which also helps in understanding the each variable effects and interaction between them consequently

I have attached an analysis for your review. This analysis reflects a comparison for Variable Cost and Absorption costing using Sales: 60,000 units Production: 80,000 units Ending Inventory: 20,000 units Based on these analyses I have made several recommendations along with pros and cons to aid in the decision-making process. I recommend that we use absorption costing over variable costing. Absorption costing is a method where “…fixed manufacturing costs are inventoriable costs” (Datar, et

Chapter 7 Notes Page 1 Variable Costing Absorption As we have seen in previous chapters, when you manufacture your own inventory, the cost of that inventory includes all of the costs associated with running the factory that produces the inventory. Generally, no part of the factory cost is expensed. Instead, it is capitalized as the cost of the inventory produced. It is only expensed when the inventory is sold. At that point the cost of the inventory becomes Cost of Goods Sold. This system is
