Matthew Bailey, as manager of Designs by Bailey,is upgrading his CAD software. The high-performance (HP)software rents for $3,000 per month per workstation. Thestandard-performance (SP) software rents for $2,000 permonth per workstation. The productivity figures that he hasavailable suggest that the HP software is faster for his kind ofdesign. Therefore, with the HP software he will need five engineers and with the SP software he will need six. This translatesinto a variable cost of $200 per drawing for the HP system and$240 per drawing for the SP system. At his projected volumeof 80 drawings per month, which system should he rent?

McBurger, Inc., wants to redesign its kitchens to improve productivity and quality. Three designs, called designs K1, K2, and K3, are under consideration. No matter which design is used, daily production of sandwiches at a typical McBurger restaurant is for 500 sandwiches. A sandwich costs $1.30 to produce. Non-defective sandwiches sell, on the average, for $2.50 per sandwich. Defective sandwiches cannot be sold and are scrapped. The goal is to choose a design that maximizes the expected profit at a typical restaurant over a 300-day period. Designs K1, K2, and K3 cost $80,000, $100,000, and $140,000, respectively. Under design K1, there is a .80 chance that 90 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective and a .20 chance that 70 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective. Under design K2, there is a .85 chance that 90 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective and a .15 chance that 75 out of each 100 sandwiches are non-defective. Under design K3, there is a .90 chance that 95 out…

Currently its only quality problem with the products is related to varnishing. It currently incurs $400 per year for quality training and $600 per year for reliability engineering. Inspection cost is $6 per unit, and all units produced are inspected. Traditionally, at an internal inspection, 9% of all units fully-produced are found to have problems with the varnishing, and are reworked. Rework cost is $100 per unit. Defective units sold to customers are returned to the company and reworked. External failures are 1% of units sold, and the company incurs the shipping costs at the rate of $20 per unit. In 2020, management are considering an alternative method of inspecting products which will reduce inspection cost by $1.50 per unit. The alternative method will reduce the internal failure to 4% of all units produced, and increase the external failure rate to 6% of all units sold. In addition, with the alternative inspection…arrow_forward
