E. Evans Company produces stuffed toy animals; one of these is Randy the Reindeer. Each reindeer takes 0.10 yard of fabric and three ounces of polyfiberfill. Fabric costs $3.50 per yard, and polyfiberfill is $0.05 per ounce. Ivans has budgeted production of stuffed reindeer for the next four months as follows: October 40,000; November 80,000; December 50,000; January 60,000. Inventory policy requires that sufficient fabric be in ending monthly inventory to satisfy 15 percent of the following month’s production needs and sufficient polyfiberfill be in inventory to satisfy 30 percent of the following month’s production needs. Inventory of fabric and polyfiberfill at the beginning of October equals exactly the amount needed to satisfy the inventory policy.Each reindeer produced requires (on average) 0.2 direct labor hour. The average cost of direct labor is $10.50 per hour. 1.Compute for the budgeted direct labor cost for October. 2.Compute for the budgeted direct labor cost for…
Morrison Manufacturing produces casings for sewing machines: large and small. To produce the different casings, equipment must be set up. The setup cost per production run is $18,000 for either casing. The cost of carrying small casings in inventory is $6 per year; the cost of large casings $18 per unit per year. To satisfy demand, the company produces 2,400,000 small casings and 800,000 large casings. Required: Compute the number of small casings that should be produced per setup to minimize total setup and carrying costs. Compute the setup, carrying, and total costs associated with the economic order quantity for the small casings.
