    Although the shelves are selling well, the total profit of the company is a concern. An engineer suggested that the current production of model S should be cut back because Model S shelves are sold for $1800 per unit but their costs are $1839. Therefore, company is losing money on each one. But the controller disagreed with that idea. He thought that the problem was the model S assembly department trying to absorb a large overhead with a small production volume.…

    From this data, as well as the data given on manufacturing methods and hours per method, a solution could be found utilizing the linear programming method of analysis. To analyze the data, the actual profit on each material was first calculated. This was done by taking the selling price and subtracting each cost associated with the given material. The results are $34.00 for the 75C, $30.00 for the 33C, $60.00 for the 5X, and $25.00 for the 7X. The next step was to determine how many constraints would be part of the analysis. There was determined to be 10 constraints in the analysis, 4 for the April orders, 4 for the manufacturing methods and 2 for the minimum orders promised by Vivian. With this data, the amount of each product to be produced to maximize profit for April could be determined. The results can be seen in Table 3.…

    Question: 1 Bharata Ltd is considering proposals for design changes in one of a range of soft toys. The proposals are as follows: (a) Eliminate some of the decorative stitching from the toy. (b) Use plastic eyes instead of glass eyes in the toys (two eyes per toy). (c) Change the filling material used. It is proposed that scrap fabric left over from the body manufacture be used instead of the synthetic material which is currently used. The design change proposals have been considered by the management team and the following information has been gathered: (a) Plastic eyes will cost Rs.15 per hundred whereas the existing glass eyes cost Rs.20 per hundred. The plastic eyes will be more liable to damage on insertion into the toy. It is estimated that scrap plastic eyes will be 10% of the quantity issued from stores as compared to 5% of issues of glass eyes at present. (b) The synthetic filling material costs Rs.80 per tonne. One tonne of filling is sufficient for 2,000 soft toys. (c) Scrap fabric to be used as filling material will need to be cut into smaller pieces before as and this will cost Rs.0.05 per soft toy. There is sufficient scrap fabric for the purpose. (d) The elimination of the decorative stitching is expected to reduce the appeal of the product, with an estimated fall in sales by 10% from the current level. It is not felt that the change in eyes or filling material will adversely affect sales volume. The elimination of the stitching will reduce production costs by Rs.0.60 per soft toy. (e) The current sales level of the soft toy is 3,00,000 units per annum. Apportioned fixed costs per annum are Rs.4,50,000. The net profit per soft toy at the current sales level is Rs.3. Required: (i) Using the information given in the question, prepare an analysis which shows the estimated effect on annual…
