now that you've delivered the bad news to kenisha that the radio-drm prototype will not be going into production, it's time to g

ive her information about the reasons why the prototype was rejected. you have identified three major issues with respect to the prototype: consumers in the focus groups perceived the product to be too complicated and not user-friendly. production costs of the product are too high versus the price consumers appear to be willing to pay. consumers in the focus group objected to the size of the unit. in which order do you believe you should address these issues with kenisha? (please note: no points are assigned to this question, and there is no incorrect answer. this will simply determine your perception of the priority these issues.)

The following will be the order in which I believe I will address the issues with Kenisha

  • Production cost
  • the complexity of the product
  • Size of the product

I have chosen this order because this order is starting from the most important issue to the least important issue. High production cost is a more serious issue than the consumers in the focus group objecting to the size of the product. I have kept the most serious and important issue at the beginning because usually, a listener has a listening attention capacity of not more than 10 to 15mins.

So, I assume Kenisha will listen to me attentively for just starting 10 to 15mins of our conversation. So, in these 10-15 mins I would like to focus and discuss more on the most important issue which is why I canceled the prototype and later followed by the two least important issues. As she needs to understand why I canceled her prototype and what is the major issues in her prototype so that she can improve them and don't repeat them in the future.

Chae Corporation uses the weighted-average method in its process costing system. This month, the beginning inventory in the firs
nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

If costs and percentage completion of these units in beginning inventory were:

Cost Percent Complete

Materials costs $7,900 60%

Conversion costs $6,900 30%

A total of 8,100 units were started and 7,600 units were transferred to the second processing department during the month. The following costs were incurred in the first processing department during the month:

Materials costs $137,900

Conversion costs $323,900

The ending inventory was 80% complete with respect to materials and 75% complete with respect to conversion costs.

Note: Your answers may differ from those offered below due to rounding error. In all cases, select the answer that is the closest to the answer you computed. To reduce rounding error, carry out all computations to at least three decimal places.

The cost per equivalent unit for materials for the month in the first processing department is closest to $17.03

Explanation:

Weighted-average method is used to make an inventory valuation, taking average values ​​for both the merchandise in stock and for the costs of merchandise sold.

But in this case, since you have unfinished units, you must take the equivalent to calculate the unit cost.

Materials:

Units completed: 7,600

Units in process: 1,200 * 80% = 960

Equivalent production units: 7,600 +, 960 = 8560

Cost at start: 7,900

Added costs in the period: 137,900

Total cost: 7900 + 137,900 = 145,800

So: 145,800 / 8,560 = 17.03 is the equivalent unit cost per product

VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Cost per letter for the correspondence​ activity= $ 8.75

Explanation:

Flannery​ Company

Given

                                 Activities Allocated      Costs Allocation Base

Account inquiry​ (hours)$ 77, 000                      2,600 hours

Account billing​ (lines) $ 38, 000                         19,000 lines

Account verification​ (accounts) $ 20,000         30,000 accounts

Correspondence​ (letters) $ 14,000                    1, 600 letters

Activities                          Northeast Office        Midwest Office

Account inquiry​ (hours)          100 hours            200 hours

Account billing​ (lines)             10,000 lines          9,000 lines

Account verification​ (accounts) 1 ,000 accounts 650 accounts

Correspondence​ (letters)           50 letters               110 letters

Calculations

Cost per letter for the correspondence​ activity= Total Correspondence/ Total No of letters

Cost per letter for the correspondence​ activity= 14000/1600= 8.75

Cost per letter for the correspondence​ activity= $ 8.75

We divide the activity cost with the corresponding cost driver to get the cost per unit of activity.

The Good Chocolate Company makes a variety of chocolate candies, including a 12-ounce chocolate bar (340 grams) and a box of six
joja [24]

Answer:

A) ≈ 3.509 grams

B) The process is not capable because the lowest Cpk which is 1.89 ≈ 1.9 is far from the ideal 1.33 capability index number ( NO )

c) 1.051 ounces

Explanation:

A) The largest standard deviation ( in grams)

This can be calculated applying the capability index formula and according to the capability index formula the value at which a process is capable is at  : 1.33

hence the largest standard deviation =  upper limit - lower limit / 6 * 1.33

 ( 354 - 326 ) / 7.98 = 3.5087 ≈ 3.509 grams

B) we first calculate the process mean and std of the box

standard deviation = \sqrt{variance }

std of the six-bar box = \sqrt{6*0.86^2}  = 2.106

process mean = 6 * ( 1.03 * 28.33) = 175.079

the mean is not centered between the upper specification and the lower specification hence we will apply the formulae used in calculating the capability index for an uncentered process

Cpk = (upper value - process mean) / (3 * std of box),

         = (187 - 175.079) / ( 3 * 2.106) = 11.921 / 6.318 = 1.89

Cpk =  (process mean -  lower value ) / (3*std of box)

       = ( 175.079 - 153 ) / (3 * 2.106) = 22.079 / 6.318 = 3.49

The process is not capable because the lowest Cpk which is 1.89 ≈ 1.9 is far from the ideal 1.33 capability index number ( N0 )

c ) lowest setting

calculate the value of the mean using capability index of 1.33

Cpk = (upper value - mean ) / 3 * std

mean = 187 - 1.33 * 3 * 2.106

           = 187 - 8.40 = 178.60 grams

Cpk = ( process mean - lower value ) / 3 * std

 mean = 1.33 * 3 * 2.106 + 153

            = 8.40 + 153 = 161.40 grams

the lowest setting in ounces

= 178.60 / ( 6 bar * 28 .33)

= 178.60 / 169.98 = 1.051 ounces
