Answer:
A. A large, well-established company wants to get its products into several markets at once.
Explanation:
A multinational indirect exporter is ideal to reach foreign markets with a low level of risk as they already have contacts that might help with the distribution and logistics.
Answer:
Please find the detailed answer as follows:
Explanation:
a) Predetermined overhead rate = Estimated manufacturing overhead cost / Estimated total units in the allocation based
Predetermined overhead rate = 600,000 / 500,000 = 1.2 perunit
b) Total fixed cost spending variance = Actual fixed overhead cost - Estimated overhead cost
= 599,400 - 600,000
= 600 (F) Favourable
c) Total fixed cost volume variance = Actual fixed overheads - Estimated fixed overheads
Actual fixed overheads = Estimated fixed overhead rate * Actual units produced
= 1.2 * 508,000 = $609,600
Total fixed cost volume variance =$ 609,600 - $600,000 = $9600 (F) Favourable
Answer:
The map of the current process is found in the attached
The minimum cycle time is 1 min 40 seconds
The longest cycle time is 2 min 35 seconds
The new minimum cycle is 1 min 15 seconds
The new longest cycle time is 2 mins
The potential problem that could surface from splitting the process is that once the customer has finished paying the customer has to wait for about 30 to 55 seconds before the second attendant finishes with packaging,hence ,a queue would likely be formed awaiting the second attendant.
The problem could be solved by ensuring the taking money and packaging takes the same time.
Explanation:
Minimum cycle time=20+55+25=100 seconds=1 minute 40 seconds
The longest cycle time=30+90+35=155 seconds=2 min 35 seconds
The new minimum cycle time=20+55=75 seconds=1 min 15 seconds
Taking customer's money also happened in the first 35 seconds of the 55 seconds above.
The new longest cycle time=30+90=120 seconds=2 mins
