Answer:

A. $74,100 $954,700

B. $880,600

Explanation:

A. Preparation to estimate the financial benefits associated with the adoption of JIT

Current situation After JIT

Sales 1,430,000 1,810,000

Less costs

Production level support 214,500 72,400

(15%*1,430,000=214,500)

(4%*1,810,000=72,400)

Variable manufacturing overhead 400,400 181,000

(28%*1,430,000=400,400)

(10%*1,810,000=181,000)

Direct material 429,000 362,000

(30%*1,430,000=429,000)

(20%*1,810,000=362,000)

Direct manufacturing labor 286,000 235,300

(20%*1,430,000=286,000)

(13%*1,810,000=235,300)

Inventory financing costs 26,000 4,600

(10%*260,000=26,000)

(10%*46,000=4,600)

Total costs 1,355,900 855,300

Operating profits $74,100 $954,700

(1,430,000-1,355,900)

(1,810,000-855,300)

Therefore the the financial benefits associated with the adoption of JIT will be $74,100 $954,700

B. Preparation for the estimated change in annual operating income attributable to the JIT implementation

Current situation After JIT Change

Sales 1,430,000-1,810,000=-380,000

Less costs

Production level support 214,500-72,400 =142,100

Variable manufacturing overhead 400,400 -181,000=219,400

Direct material 429,000-362,000=67,000

Direct manufacturing labor 286,000- 235,300= 50,700

Inventory financing costs 26,000-4,600 =21,400

Total costs 1,355,900-855,300=500,600

Operating profits 74,100-954,700=880,600

Therefore the estimated change in annual operating income attributable to the JIT implementation will be 880,600

fenix001 [56]

If the number of employed workers equals 200 million and the number of unemployed workers equals 20 million, the unemployment rate equals 9%.

<h3>What is the unemployment rate?</h3>

The unemployment rate is the percentage of the labour force that is unemployed.

The unemployment rate = (number of unemployed people / total labour force) x 100

Total labour force = 200 million + 20 million = 220 million

(20 / 220) x 100 = 9%
