Answer:
Answer for the question:
During the beginning of the 21st century, the growth in computer sales declined for the first time in almost two decades. As a result, PC makers dramatically reduced their orders of computer chips from Intel and other vendors. In general, the environment in which computer manufacturers operate is very uncertain; how should we expect this feature of the market to affect the length of contracts between computer manufacturers and their hardware manufacturers?
is given in the attachment.
Explanation:
Answer:
The materials equivalent units is 37,700
Conversion costs equivalent units is 32,480
Explanation:
The equivalent units of production for materials can be computed thus:
Description quantity % of completion Equivalent units
Completed units 29000 100 29000
(37700-8700)
Ending inventory 8700 100 <u> 8700</u>
total equivalent units for materials 37700
The equivalent units of production for conversion costs can be computed thus:
Description quantity % of completion Equivalent units
Completed units 29000 100 29000
(37700-8700)
Ending inventory 8700 40 <u> 3480
</u>
total equivalent units for conversion costs 32480
I applied 100% percentage of completion to ending inventory when determining materials equivalent units and 40% percentage completion when determining equivalent units for conversion cots as it given in the question

- <u>D</u>efine the problem: involves defining the problem statement ⇒ the reasons for creating or improving the process ⇒ define the goals of the process ⇒ establish a timeline ⇒ determine the scope of the project ⇒ choose the team that will be in charge of carrying out the project.
- <u>M</u>easure or quantify the problem.
- <u>A</u>nalyze and identify the cause of the problem.
- <u>I</u>mprove by solving the root cause of the problem and verify the improvement.
- <u>C</u>ontrol the improvements and pursue perfection.
