**Assembly Process of Tennis Racquets:**In our Assembly Department, we incorporate three types of Direct Materials: frame, string, and handle, along with standard Conversion Costs. Initially, we introduce the frame direct material at the start of the assembly process for bending, polishing, etc. Approximately 6 minutes is dedicated to working on the frame. Subsequently, we add the string direct material and continue working for about 3 minutes. Finally, the handle direct material is added and completes the process in the next 1 minute. Each racquet spends roughly 10 minutes in the Assembly Department.Conversion Costs are distributed evenly throughout the assembly time. Our beginning inventory included 200 partially completed racquets, which were 55% complete. This period, we initiated the assembly of 5,000 more racquets. The ending inventory comprised 300 partially finished racquets, 80% complete. Based on this, complete the table below:**Table:**| | Whole Units | EU for DM - Frames | EU for DM - String | EU for DM - Handle | EU for CC ||---------------------|-------------|--------------------|---------------------|--------------------|----------|| Beg Inv | | | | | || S & C | | | | | || End Inv | | | | | || Total | | | | | |*Note: "EU" stands for "Equivalent Units," and "S & C" denotes "Started and Completed." Fill in the table as per the data provided.*

1. We produce tennis racquets. In the Assembly Department, we have 3 types of Direct Materials: frame, string, and handle, as well as normal Conversion Costs. We add the frame direct material at the beginning of the assembly process so we can bend it, polish it, etc. About 6 minutes is used working on the frame. Then, we add the string direct material and work on it for about the next 3 minutes. Then, we add the handle direct material and finish working on it over the next 1 minute. So, each racquet spends about 10 minutes in the Assembly Department. The Conversion Costs are added evenly throughout the entire time. We had 200 partially completed racquets in our beginning inventory that were 55% complete. We started 5,000 more this period. We had 300 partially completed racquets in our ending inventory that were 80% complete. Based on this information, complete the following table: Whole Units Beg Inv S & C End Inv Total EU for DM Frames EU for DM - String EU for DM - Handle EU for CC

Lead Time ¡Sounds Inc. manufactures electronic stereo equipment. The manufacturing process includes printed circuit (PC) board assembly, final assembly, testing, and shipping. In the PC board assembly operation, a number of individuals are responsible for assembling electronic components into printed circuit boards. Each operator is responsible for soldering components according to a given set of instructions. Operators work on batches of 50 printed circuit boards. Each board requires 4 minutes of board assembly time. After each batch is completed, the operator moves the assembled boards to the final assembly area. This move takes 9 minutes to complete. The final assembly for each stereo unit requires 21 minutes and is also done in batches of 50 units. A batch of 50 stereos is moved into the test building, which is across the street. The move takes 20 minutes. Before conducting the test, the test equipment must be set up for the particular stereo model. The test setup requires 30…
Yankee is the Plant Manager of Reebok International Limited and he wants to determine the product mix that will result in maximum profit. He is able to determine the data necessary for him to make a decision. It will take 10 minutes to cut 1 unit of Classic and 16 minutes to cut 1 unit of Freestyle and he has a total of 160 minutes available for the cutting process per day. It will take 14 minutes to sew 1 unit of Classic and 8 minutes to sew 1 unit of Freestyle and he has a total of 112 minutes available for the sewing process per day. It will take 20 minutes to adhere 1 unit of Classic and 22 minutes to adhere 1 unit of Freestyle and he has to use up at least 440 minutes of subcontracted adhesion process per day. He will earn P350 for every unit of Classic produced and P380 for every unit of Freestyle produced. Let x be the number of Classic rubber shoes and let y be the number of Freestyle rubber shoes.
Rough Stuff makes 2 products: khaki shorts and khaki pants for men. Each product passes through the cutting machine area, which is the chief constraint during production. Khaki shorts take 15 minutes on the cutting machine and have a contribution margin per pair of shorts of $16. Khaki pants take 24 minutes on the cutting machine and have a contribution margin per pair of pants of $32. Based on the contribution margin per the constrained resource, which product should Rough Stuff produce? a. khaki short b. khaki pants

Devereaux Cycles makes three models of scooter: Commuter, Sport, and X-treme. The scooters are produced in four departments: Assembly, Detailing, Customization, and Packaging. All three models are started in Assembly, where all materials are assembled. The Commuter is then sent to Packaging, where it is packaged and transferred to finished goods inventory. The Sport is then transferred to Detailing. Once the detailing process is completed, the Sport models are transferred to Packaging and then finished goods. The X- Treme model is assembled and then transferred to Customization, and then Packaging. When packaged, it is transferred to finished goods. Data for February are shown in the following table. Conversion costs are allocated based on the number of units processed in each department. No work-in-process inventories are maintained in any department. Materials Conversion costs: Assembly Detailing Customization Packaging Total conversion costs Commuter Sport X-Treme Total $ 3,694,000…
Williams Optical Inc. is considering a new lean product cell. The present manufacturing approach produces a product in four separate steps. The production batch sizes are 45 units. The process time for each step is as follows: Step Time (in minutes) Process Step 1 5 Process Step 2 8 Process Step 3 4 Process Step 4 3 The time required to move each batch between steps is 4 minutes. In addition, the time to move raw materials to Process Step 1 is also 4 minutes, and the time to move completed units from Process Step 4 to finished goods inventory is 6 minutes. The new lean layout will allow the company to reduce the batch sizes from 45 units to 3 units. The time required to move each batch between steps and the inventory locations will be reduced to 2 minutes. The processing time in each step will stay the same. Determine the value-added, non-value-added, and total lead times, and the value-added ratio under the: present and proposed production…

McKnight Handcraft is a manufacturer of picture frames for large retailers. Every picture frame passes through two departments: the assembly department and the finishing department. This problem focuses on the assembly department. The process-costing system at McKnight has a single direct-cost category (direct materials) and a single indirect-cost category (conversion costs). Direct materials are added when the assembly department process is 10% complete. Conversion costs are added evenly during the assembly department's process. McKnight uses the weighted-average method of process costing. Consider the following data for the assembly department in April: (Click the icon to view the data.) Required Work in process, ending Accounted for Equivalent units of work done to date Now summarize the total costs to account for.

Life Force Fitness, Inc., assembles and sells treadmills. Activity-based product information for each treadmill is as follows: ETT Activity-Base Usage (hrs. per unit) Activity Rate per Hour Activity Motor assembly Activity Cost $30.00 1.50 $20 Final assembly Testing 1.00 18 18.00 0.25 22 5.50 Rework 0.40 22 8.80 Moving Activity cost per unit 3.00 $65.30 0.20 15 All of the activity costs are related to labor. Management must remove $2.00 of activity cost from the product in order to remain competitive. Rework involves disassembling and repairing a unit that fails testing. Not all units require rework, but the average is 0.40 hour per unit. Presently, the testing is done on the completed assembly; but much of the rework has been related to motors, which can be tested independently prior to adding the motor to the treadmill during final assembly. Thus, motor issues can be diagnosed and solved without having to disassemble the complete treadmill. This change will reduce the average rework…
