Learning Curve Sharon Glessing, controller for Janson Company, has noticed that the company faces a 80 percent learning rate for its specialty design line. In planning the cost of the latest design, Sharon assumed that the first set of units would take 1,200 direct labor hours. She decided to use this information in budgeting for the cost of the total project, which would involve the manufacture of 16 sets. Direct labor is paid $40 per hour. Required: 1. Complete the table below showing results by row for total production of: one unit, two units, four units, eight units, and sixteen units. (Round hour answers to two significant digits.)

Practice problem Lumber and Cabinetry. The Lumber Division is responsible for harvesting and preparing lumber for use; the Cabinetry Division produces custom-ordered cabinetry. The lumber produced by the Lumber Division has a variable cost of $3.00 per linear foot and full cost of $4.00. Comparable quality wood sells on the open market for $9.00 per linear foot.1. Assume you are the manager of the Cabinetry Division. Determine the maximum amount you would pay for lumber.2. Assume you are the manager of the Lumber Division. Determine the minimum amount you would charge for the lumber if you have excess capacity. Repeat assuming you have no excess capacity.
Based on recent experience, a company knows that its production follows an 80% learning eurve. The unit variable cost of the 100 unit, which the company just produced, was $30. To complete a price quote for a customer with a special order for another 100 units, the compary needs to knew what their unit variable cost will be at the end of the special project. Which of the following is the best answer? O A. $37.50 O B. $30.00 OC. $24.00 D D. $6.00 DE. Cannot be determinec from the information given
Please answer quick in 30 minutes. Prepare a comprehensive report to management highlighting three-year make-or-buy unit cost analysis and recommend appropriate action. What are the other non-cost variables that would be helpful in this analysis? As a manufacturing analyst, you are a member of a make-or-buy review team for electric components and work for a multinational company, TransAll Ltd. Your marketing group estimates the following volumes for a component required for motor assembly: Year 1; 300,000 units, Year 2: 500,000 units, Year 3: 200,000 units. A Chinese supplier has quoted the price as Mu(monetary unit) 0.10 per unit with 10 % price decrease per year for year 2 and 3 for the same component. . Shipping and handling costs are expected to be Mu 0.01 per unit for years 1 through 3. Additional inventory handling charges are Mu 0.005 per unit. In addition, purchasing costs are estimated at Mu 20 per purchase order with a purchase order being released every month for the…
Requirement 1. Calculate the total variable costs of producing 2, 3, and 4 units assuming that Northern Defense uses an 85% incremental unit-time learning model as a basis for predicting manufacturing labor-hours.

profile-image Student question Time to preview question: 00 : 08 : 51 The Epsilon Co. have a building, which houses three production department, Alpha, Beta and Gamma, and one service department Delta. The service department, Delta is wholly involved in working for the three production departments and it is estimated that department Alpa uses 50%, department Beta uses 30% and department Gamma uses 20% of the services of department Delta. The budgeted overhead for the four departments for a period were: REQUIRED: a. Apportion the costs to the departments on the most equitable bases and calculate the overhead absorption rate, based on labour hours, for all the production department.
