Answer:
Option A
Make the logistics function more complicated
Explanation:
The JIT inventory system refers to the Just In Time inventory system.
The just-in-time (JIT) inventory system is a management strategy where warehousing of parts is minimum. Rather, the raw material supply is aligned accurately with the production schedule of a particular good.
For example, in car production, the various car parts are supplied by various manufacturers at just the right time so they can be assembled to make up the car in the assembly line. The car assembly companies may not necessarily have to store raw materials in their ware house since the raw materials arrive "Just in time".
However, aligning the supply of raw materials accurately with production time, is a complicated task especially when a lot of manufacturers are involved and can need to plant down time if care is not taken. This makes the logistics function more complicated.
Answer:
The answer is d. payment to hire a security worker to guard the gate to the factory around the clock.
Explanation:
Let re-visit to the concept of Fixed cost before applying to the questions.
Fixed costs are costs which are unchanged given changes in production level.
a. payment to a electric utility is not fixed cost because higher level of production required higher electricity consumption which leads to higher cost of electricity.
b. cost of raw material is not fixed cost because the higher the production level, the higher the raw material required for production.
c. wages to hire assembly line workers is not fixed cost because the higher the production level, the more workers required and the higher the wages will be.
d. payment to hire a security worker to guard the gate to the factory around the clock is fixed cost because regardless of the production level, the security worker will work for the same amount of time and receive the same level of payment as his workload is much likely to remain the same.
So, d is the correct choice.
All of them are good options, but I would say that D would be the most practical. This is because you’re able to find a large amount of information about a product and view its uses in your situation without paying the cost of the actual product itself.
Answer:
$624, 750
Explanation:
Purchases = 900,000
Sales = 1500000
Price index = 110%
Inventory= 189750
1,500,000 - [{($150,000 x 110%) + $900,000} - $189,750]
=1,500,000 - [($150,000 x 1.1) + $900,000] - $189,750
= 1,500,000 - (1065000 - 189750)
= 1,500,000 - 875250
=$624,750
Gross profit. = $624750
