Explanation:

You start with step 1 that establishes the issue.  

A issue is that a current condition is separated into a desirable one.

The decision-maker who overlooks the problem or who determines the incorrect problem will track many poor decisions.  

In the second stage, the key decision factors to resolve the problem are established. In making the decision, the decision-maker chooses what is important. Any variables not listed here are treated as insignificant. It refers to the desires, beliefs and similar personal preferences of the decision-maker.

The third step would be to weigh down the parameters previously identified and give them the right priority in the decision.  

In step 4, we build solutions that can resolve the problem successfully.  

Step five uses each parameter to score each choice. Analyze every choice objectively and assess it.  

As compared with the parameters and weights defined in the second and third phases, the strengths and weaknesses of each choice are clear. Finally, the correct decision is to be determined. Assess the weighted parameters for each selection and select the highest overall score alternative.

Total Year for direct labor                                       $ 130,200

Explanation:

Computation of raw material purchases

<u>Raw material consumption</u>

Qtr No of Units per qtr Total Requirement

1        9,000 * 7 gms per unit =      63,000 gms

2      12,000 * 7 gms per unit =      84,000 gms

3       11,000 * 7 gms per unit =      77,000 gms

4       10,000 * 7 gms per unit =     <u>70,000</u> gms

Total Year                                     294,000 gms

Raw Material Purchases for each quarter

Purchases = Closing inventory + Consumption - Opening inventory

1 21,000 (84,000gms * 25 % ) + 63,000 - 15.750 =  68,250 gms  

2 19,250 (77,000gms* 25 %) + 84,000 - 21,000 =  82,250 gms

3 17,500 ( 70,000gms* 25 %) + 77,000-19,250 =  75,250 gms

4 8,000 ( As per data) + 70,000-17.500            =  60,500 gms

Total year purchases =                                       =  286,250 gms

<u>Cost of purchases</u>

Quarter 1    68,250 gms  * $ 1.20     = $  81,900

Quarter 2   82,250 gms * $ 1.20      = $  98,700

Quarter 3   75,250 gms * $ 1,20     =  $ 90,300

Quarter 4   60,500 gms * $ 1,20    =   <u>$ 72,600</u>

Total purchases                                   $ 343,500

Computation of cash disbursements for purchases

Quarter 1 Payments = Opening Payables + 60 % of quarter 1

$ 5,600 + ( 60 %* $ 81,900) = $ 5,600 + $ 49,140 =               $ 54,740

Quarter 2 payments

(40 % of quarter 1) + ( 60 % of quarter 2)

($ 81,900 * 40 %) + ( $ 98,700 * 60 %)

$ 32,760 + $ 59,220                                               =                $ 91,980

Quarter 3 payments

(40 % of quarter 2) + ( 60 % of quarter 3)

($ 98,700 * 40 %) + ( $ 90,300 * 60 %)

$ 39,480 + $ 54,180                                                =                $ 93.660    

Quarter 4 payments

(40 % of quarter 3) + ( 60 % of quarter 4)

($ 90,300 * 40 %) + ( $ 72,600 * 60 %)

$ 36,120 + $ 43,560                                                =               <u> $ 79,680</u>

Total payments for purchases for the year                            $ 320,060

Computation of direct labor cost  

No of units * Estimated Direct labor hours * Labor rate per hour

Quarter 1  =    9,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =         $  27.900

Quarter 2  =   12,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =        $  37.200

Quarter 3       11,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =         $  34.100

Quarter 4       10,000 * 0.20 per unit * $ 15.50               =         <u>$  31.000</u>

Total cost for Direct labour                                                        $ 130,200

A paint manufacturer has a uniform annual demand for 16,000 cans of automobile primer. It costs $4 to store one can of paint for
Luda [366]

Answer:

B) The company should have 8 production runs each year

Explanation:

Given :

Uniform annual demand, = 16000

Total cost, C = 500y + 2x

xy = 16000

x = \frac{16000}{y}

Let's substitute \frac{16000}{y} for x in C.

Therefore, we have :

C = 500y + 2( \frac{16000}{y} )

C = 500y + \frac{32000}{y}

In order to minimize the total storage and setup costs,

Differentiating wrt y:

C = C_m_i_n,    \frac{dc}{dy}=0

C'(y) = 500y + \frac{32000}{y^2} = 0

y^2 = \frac{320}{5} = 64

y = \sqrt{64} = 8

In order to minimize the total storage and setup costs, the company should have 8 production runs each year
