They should identify which of their TQM measures contributed the most to product defect decreases (for example, using a Pareto chart). They can do a cost-benefit analysis to see whether there are any expensive methods that are only giving minimal improvement overall, and they may be willing to sacrifice those TQM methods to reduce their cost and allow a slight increase in defect rate.

<span>To help bring down their cost, it is important for Mobley Industries to find what total quality management (TQM) activity brought down their product defects. If they can find what change brought down their defects, they may find the source of which increase their product costs. However, in often times decreasing defects if they have to do with adding extra labor, steps, or parts will increase the cost without allowing for change. If they can pinpoint where the increase is coming from though, they may be able to find a better more cost effective solution. </span>

Sauron [17]

Answer:

$378

Explanation:

Interest expenses in current year = Amount of borrowing*Interest rate*8 month/12 months

Interest expenses in current year = $30,000 * 6.75% * 8/12

Interest expenses in current year = $1,350

Tax saving on interest expenses = Interest expenses * Tax rate

Tax saving on interest expenses = $1,350 * 28%

Tax saving on interest expenses = $378

So, their tax savings for the first year ending December 31 will be $378.
