Answer to Problem 14P

The revenue retrieval amount for GF Deluxe is $4.53.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

GF Deluxe:

Part Resale revenue per unit Recycling revenue per unit Processing cost per unit Disposal cost per unit
Metal frame $3.27 $4.78 $1.05 $0.85
Battery $0.00 $3.68 $6.18 $3.05
Motor housing $3.93 $2.95 $2.05 $1.25
Trimmer head $1.25 $0.75 $1.00 $0.65

PM:

Part Resale revenue per unit Recycling revenue per unit Processing cost per unit Disposal cost per unit
Metal frame $3.18 $3.95 $1.15 $0.65
Battery $0.00 $3.68 $4.15 $3.00
Motor housing $4.05 $3.45 $2.45 $1.90
Trimmer head $1.05 $0.85 $1.10 $0.75

Formula:

Revenue retrieval=[Total resale revenue+Total recycling revenueTotal processing costTotal disposal cost]

Calculate the revenue retrieval amount for GF Deluxe:

Part Resale revenue per unit Recycling revenue per unit Processing cost per unit Disposal cost per unit
Metal frame $3.27 $4.78 $1.05 $0.85
Battery $0.00 $3.68 $6.18 $3.05
Motor housing $3.93 $2.95 $2.05 $1.25
Trimmer head $1.25 $0.75 $1.00 $0.65
Total $8.45 $12.16 $10.28 $5.80
Total retrieval $4.53

Table 1

Revenue retrieval amount=$8.45+$12.16$10.28$5.80=$4.53

The revenue retrieval amount is calculated by subtracting all the costs involved from the resale revenue obtained which is $4.53.

Hence, the revenue retrieval amount for GF Deluxe is $$4.53.

Trimmer head $1.05 $0.85 $1.10 $0.75

Formula:

Revenue retrieval=[Total resale revenue+Total recycling revenueTotal processing costTotal disposal cost]

Calculate the revenue retrieval amount for PM:

Part Resale revenue per unit Recycling revenue per unit Processing cost per unit Disposal cost per unit
Metal frame $3.18 $3.95 $1.15 $0.65
Battery $0.00 $3.68 $4.15 $3.00
Motor housing $4.05 $3.45 $2.45 $1.90
Trimmer head $1.05 $0.85 $1.10 $0.75
Total $8.28 $11.93 $8.85 $6.30
Total retrieval $5.06

Table 2

Revenue retrieval amount=$8.28+$11.93$8.85$6.30=$5.06

The revenue retrieval amount is calculated by subtracting all the costs involved from the resale revenue obtained which is $5.06.

Hence, the revenue retrieval amount for PM is $5.06.

Answer to Problem 14P

The better model in terms of design is PM.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

GF Deluxe:

Part Resale revenue per unit Recycling revenue per unit Processing cost per unit Disposal cost per unit
Metal frame $3.27 $4.78 $1.05 $0.85
Battery $0.00 $3.68 $6.18 $3.05
Motor housing $3.93 $2.95 $2.05 $1.25
Trimmer head $1.25 $0.75 $1.00 $0.65

PM:

Part Resale revenue per unit Recycling revenue per unit Processing cost per unit Disposal cost per unit
Metal frame $3.18 $3.95 $1.15 $0.65
Battery $0.00 $3.68 $4.15 $3.00
Motor housing $4.05 $3.45 $2.45 $1.90
Trimmer head $1.05 $0.85 $1.10 $0.75

From Table 1 and 2, it can be inferred that PM has better design alternatives in terms of revenue retrieval because it has the highest revenue retrieval.

Hence, the PM is the better design alternative because it has a higher revenue retrieval opportunity.
