Company A has been experiencing lost sales and high returns recently, so they have decided to undertake a comprehensive quality

program. The program would require additional inspection of products prior to shipment at an estimated cost of 45000, and the upgrading of production equipment at an estimated cost of 400000. Company A knows that if it undertakes this program, it will be able to reduce warranty repair costs by 25000. They also know they will be able to avoid lost profits by retaining customers, but they cannot quantify that benefit with any degree of precision.Should company A go ahead with the quality program?

Answer:

Explanation:

Incremental cost

Inspection cost prior to shipment - 45,000

Upgrading of equipment - 400,000

Incremental benefit - 25,000

The incremental cost of improving quality far outweigh the incremental benefit

Even though loss of profit was avoided by retaining existing customers , yet the quality improvement program dies not guarantee additional customers and profit to write off or reduce  the incremental cost .

Therefor , it is not advisable fort the company to go on with the quality program.

Furthermore, employees who use romantic relationship to their advantage for workplace advancement is strictly prohibited.

solmaris [256]
  1. Answer: $6600  Explanation: Athens' entered into a contract to deliver services from November 1. This contract is valid for 6 months. Their fiscal year ends on December 31. This means that only 2 months worth of services will be delivered in 2018. Even if Athens received cash for the full 6 months they can only record the revenue when they have fulfilled the obligations and rendered the service.  Because only 2 months were rendered in 2018, they can only record $6600 ($3300 × 2 months) in the 2018 fiscal year. The outstanding 4 months' balance will remain in income received in advance account until these 4 months' services are actually rendered and the obligation is fulfilled by Athens.
