- Sniparrow_forwardDevelop a production plan and calculate the annual cost for a firm whose demand forecast is fall, 11,000; winter, 8,000; spring, 6,000; summer, 13,000. Inventory at the beginning of fall is 500 units. At the beginning of fall you currently have 30 workers, but you plan to hire temporary workers at the beginning of summer and lay them off at the end of summer. In addition, you have negotiated with the union an option to use the regular workforce on overtime during winter or spring if overtime is necessary to prevent stockouts at the end of those quarters. Overtime is not available during the fall. Relevant costs are hiring, $100 for each temp; layoff $200 for each worker laid off; inventory holding, $5 per unit-quarter; backorder, $10 per unit; straight time, $5 per hour; overtime, $8 per hour. Assume that the productivity is 0.5 unit per worker hour, with eight hours per day and 60 days per season. a.

Use the example in the chapter as a guide (Plan 1).The monthly forecasts for Product X for January, February, and March are 1,000, 1,500, and 1,200, respectively. Safety stock policy recommends that half of the forecast for that month be defined as safety stock. There are 22 working days on January, 19 in February, and 21 in March. The beginning inventory is 500 units.Manufacturing cost is $200 per unit, storage cost is $3 per unit per month, standard pay rate is $6 per hour, overtime rate is $9 per hour, cost of stock out is $10 per unit per month, marginal cost of subcontracting is $10 per unit, hiring and training cost is $200 per worker, layoff cost is $300 per worker, and worker productivity is 0.1 unit per hour. Assume that you start off with 50 workers and that they work 8 hours per day.arrow_forward

The company applies the loss method and uses an Allowance Account to record for the write down of the inventory to net realisable value (NRV). However, Madam Rabiatul, Terrar Bhd’s accountant had an argument with Mr. Zaman, senior accountant of the company regarding the method to be used to record the write down of the inventories. Madam Rabiatul wants to use the loss method to write down inventory because it is more clearly discloses the decline in the net realisable value and does not distort the cost of goods sold.
