Answer: D. All of these choices are correct.

Explanation:

Lean manufacturing occurs when an organisation produces goods using as little resources as they can, while still producing enough goods at the correct quality.

This includes all options (a-c) for the following reasons:

a. Supplier partnering - it is important to have a smooth operations in terms of the organisation's relationships with their partners. This leads to an efficient supply management because this leads to better control over the flow of material and production planning, especially when the aim is to use minimal resourses.

b. Employee involvement - in lean manufacturing, less human effort is required. However high quality goods at the right quanity still needs to be produced.Therefore it is important for the little employees needed, to work cohesively to produce these goods effectively and efficiently.

c. Product orientated production layout - Also known as assembly line, this is when employees perfom minimal functions at a time, to produce large quantities of a few types of products that are different.

So for lean manufacturing to be implemented and operate effectively, it requires all these options.

trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

Burns Industries

Using an incremental analysis approach, Burns should consider accepting this special order only if the price per unit offered by Allen is at least:

above $38 (the variable cost per unit).

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Monthly production and sales units = 18,000

Production capacity per month = 33,000 units

Costs at the 18,000-unit-per-month level of production:

Variable costs = $38

Fixed costs =        23

Total per unit =  $61

Selling price per unit = $78

Special offer for 4,800 saws per month, without changing the fixed manufacturing costs.

b) Incremental analysis approach is a management decision technique that specifies that only relevant, marginal, or differential costs should be taken into account.  It rules out the inclusion of sunk or fixed costs, which do not change between alternatives.
