Stahman, Inc., estimates its hidden external failure costs using the Taguchi loss function. Stahlman produces plastic sheets that vary in thickness and grade. For one of its large-volume products, it was determined that k = 30,000 and T = 0.28 inches in diameter. A sample of four units produced the following values: Required: 1. Calculate the average loss per unit. 2. Assuming that 100,000 units were produced, what is the total hidden cost? 3. Assume that the multiplier for Stahmans hidden external failure costs is six. What are the measured external costs? Explain the difference between measured costs and hidden costs.

Furlan Printing Corporation, a book printer, has provided the following data: May June July August September October November December Titles Printed 29 30 42 24 40 Variable cost Fixed cost 38 39 35 Press Setup Cost $ 3,185 $ 3,218 $ 3,703 $ 3,011 $ 3,622 $ 3,566 $ 3,568 $3,250 Management believes that the press setup cost is a mixed cost that depends on the number of titles printed. (A specific book that is to be printed is called a "title". Typically, thousands of copies will be printed of each title. Specific steps must be taken to setup the presses for printing each title-for example, changing the printing plates. The costs of these steps are the press setup costs.) Required: Estimate the variable cost per title printed and the fixed cost per month using the least-squares regression method. (Round the "Variable cost" to 2 decimal places and the "Fixed cost" to the nearest dollar amount.) per title printed per month
What is the variable cost per unit??
Sunbeam Logistics would like you to estimate... Can you please give me correct answer the accounting question
Consider the additional information presented as follows, which is hypothetical. All dollar amounts are in thousands, unit amounts are not.
