From a quantitative perspective‚ the superior value and price of the Kunst 1600 can be attributed to these three elements. Value Elements: • Cost savings due to the elimination of oil change expenses and messiness -- Most owners and technicians trivialize oil change related costs. • Incremental revenue and profits –Incremental revenue and profits refers to new income that can be attributed to greater product efficiency. In this case study‚ this occurs in only one segment – light commercial

FlexCon is a company that prides itself on the quality of its pistons. Lately they have been relying on suppliers for major components while manufacturing simple items with relatively small differentiation. By doing this‚ too much of their talent is going to waste leaving them with a big decision of whether to keep outsourcing or to insource. They are already heavily dependent on suppliers for critical components. The cost it takes to insource is greater than the cost to outsource but deciding to

should allow a company to expand into new end markets as well as provide a significant benefit to customers. It should also be hard for competitors to replicate. Ans – 3 One topic that interested FlexCon managers was a discussion of how core competencies relate to outsourcing decisions. FlexCon management commonly accepted that a core competency was something the company "was good at." This view‚ however‚ is not correct. A core competence refers to skills‚ processes‚ or resources that distinguish

cylinders. 10 LEXUS Technical Training Master Cylinder Master Cylinder The master cylinder converts the motion of the brake pedal into hydraulic pressure. It consists of the reservoir tank‚ which contains the brake fluid; and the piston and cylinder which generate the hydraulic pressure. The reservoir tank is made mainly of synthetic resin‚ while the cylinders are made of cast iron or an aluminum alloy. Master Cylinder Stores brake fluid and converts the motion of the brake

stroke is used to describe the full travel of the piston along the cylinder‚ in whichever direction. A four stroke engine is one of the most common engine types. It powers almost all trucks and cars today. Each one corresponds to one full stroke of the piston. All four of these parts help make the engine function as a whole. The first stroke is called the intake stroke the first stroke in the four stroke engine. In the intake stroke‚ the piston moves downward‚ drawing a renewed charge of vaporized

convincing Knight the necessity of purchasing the insurance program can strengthen the image of our company from the Government. One should achieve this even in the need of giving up profit margin. An alternative for this is to persuade Knight to buy more pistons in case there are a number of defects of their purchase.

Research Paper on Pascal’s Law Blaise Pascal’s findings and contributions to the behavior of fluid in an enclosed space have been an invaluable and important concept in fluid mechanics and its applications especially in the automotive industry‚ mechanical engineering‚ and hydraulics. Pascal’s law or the principle of transmission of fluid-pressure that was proposed by Blaise Pascal. According to Bloomfield‚ the law is a principle in fluid mechanics that states that for a particular position within

Although Knight does have the capacity to build one thousand V-16Z automobile engines‚ they do not have the pistons required to make the Class "A" engines. Their regular piston supplier only manufactures inferior "Class C" pistons‚ which would be unacceptable to the government. Since one thousand engines are to be produced‚ eight thousand Class "A" pistons are required. If the Class "A" pistons could be acquired within two weeks‚ the two-month government deadline could be met. Knight made inquiries
