Answer:
The answer is: 4) More frequently than not, the three objectives are compatible.
Explanation:
Toyota is famous for its Just in Time (JIT) management. They are the absolute kings of efficient supply chain management and they were able to do it by making the three objectives compatible. That doesn't mean that they all have to be dealt with at the same time and with the same intensity.
Toyota's first goal was to reduce costs and in order to reduce costs they had to increase their inventory turnover. Then they discovered that in order to keep increasing inventory turnover, they had to compress their cycle time. When they were able to compress their cycle time, their turnover increased even more and their costs were lowered. The system produces continuous feedback and their efficiency keeps increasing.
I once visited one of their factories that produces almost 500 pickup trucks per day and every single work station had available inventory for only 4 trucks; only 4 engines, 16 doors, etc. It is amazing how they do it considering that every 3 minutes one truck is fully produced.
The three objectives are not only compatible, but they are absolutely necessary for the SCM to be effective.
Answer:
Unit product cost = $107
Explanation:
<em>Absorption costing is a method of costing where production units and inventories are value at the full cost per unit. Here, fixed overheads are charged to all units produced using an overhead absorption rate</em>
The full cost per unit = D.mat cost + D.labour cost + Variable overheads+ Fixed overheads
Fixed production overhead cost per unit
=Fixed manufacturing overhead/units produced
= $43,700/ 1,900 Units
=$23 per unit
Full cost per unit
= $42 + $31 + $11 + 23
= $107
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Depreciation is the uniform decrease in the value of an asset over a period until the salvage value is reached.
It is given by :
Annual depreciation expense = (cost of asset - salvage)÷ useful life of the asset
Therefore the accumulated depreciation would not equal the original cost of the asset at the end of its estimated useful life because the salvage value will be deducted from cost of asset under declining-Balance.
