Answer:

a. station 1

Explanation:

A bottleneck is basically the place or station where the production process is congested or delayed because that station lacks the capacity to process work. Bottlenecks are where queues are formed, and the whole process gets delayed.

In this case, station 1 can process 6 units per hour, station 2 can process 10 units per hour and station 3 can process 7.5 units per hour. The station that processes the least number of units is station 1, so that is the station that limits the whole production system. In this case, due to station 1's low processing capacity, a lot of idle time exists in the other 2 stations.

Answer:

$560,000

Explanation:

We can only amortize the $1,400,000 that the company spent after technological feasibility was reached. Research and development costs prior to June 30th must be treated as expenses.

Since the software s expected to generate $10 million during its lifetime, we can amortize 1/10th of the software development cost for each million sold:

($1,400,000 / 10) x 4 = $560,000
