Answer:

<u>Crowd-sourcing</u>

Explanation:

Like the term "outsourcing" conveys assigning task performed by own workforce to outside specialized firms, "crowd-sourcing" refers to breaking down a huge project which was initially performed by a single individual, and assigning the small parts to a large group.

Such an activity speeds up the performance of the project as a whole i.e the project gets completed lot more efficiently.

Crowd-sourcing helps a company utilize the skill sets unavailable to it within it's own workforce. Secondly such an activity speeds up the tasks and reduces operational costs.

Lehman Corp. has two departments: Assembly and Testing. Assembly department had beginning inventory of 750 units which were 50%
algol13

Answer:

Total equivalent unit     1,425 units

Explanation:

<em>Under the first-in -first out system, to account for the units completed in a period, it is assumed that the opening inventory units are first completed and the balance represents the newly introduced.</em>

<em>Fully worked represents unit of inventory started this this period and completed this period</em>

Fully worked = completed units - opening inventory

Fully worked = 1200 -750 = 450 units

Item                        Units                                     Equivalent Units

Opening WIP         750     750×50%                     375

Fully worked          450      450× 100%                   450

Closing WIP           800       800× 75%                 <u> 600</u>

Total equivalent unit                                              <u>1,425</u>

Note the opening inventory has 50% work done last period so the balance of 50% i.e (100 - 50)  is completed this period
