A.J.’s Wildlife Emporium manufactures two unique birdfeeders (Deluxe and Super Duper) that are manufactured and assembled in up to three different workstations (X, Y, Z) using a small batch process. Each of the products is produced according to the flowchart in Figure. Additionally, the flowchart indicates each product’s price, weekly demand, and processing times per unit. Batch setup times are negligible.A.J. can make and sell up to the limit of its weekly demand and there are no penalties for not being able to meet all of the demand. Each workstation is staffed by a worker who is dedicated to work on that workstation alone and is paid $16 per hour. The plant operates 40 hours per week, with no overtime. Overhead costs are $2,000 per week. Based on the information provided, as well as the information contained in the flowchart, answer the following questions. a. Using the traditional method, which bases decisions solely on a product’s contribution to profits and overhead, what is the…

The following diagram shows the flow process. Raw material cost, and machine processing time for three products: A, B, and C. There are three machines (W, X and Y) used in the production of these products; the times shown are in required minutes of production per unit. Raw material costs are shown in cost per unit of product. The market will take all that can be produced.

Charles Lackey operates a bakery in Idaho Falls, Idaho. Because of its excellent product and excellent location, demand has increased by % in the last year. On far too many occasions, customers have not been able to purchase the bread of their choice. Because of the size of the store, no new ovens can be added. At a staff meeting, one employee suggested ways to load the ovens differently so that more loaves of bread can be baked at one time. This new process will require that the ovens be loaded by hand, requiring additional manpower. This is the only thing to be changed. The bakery currently makes loaves per month. The pay will be $ per hour for employees and each employee works 160 hours per month.Charles Lackey can also improve the yield by purchasing a new blender. The new blender will mean an increase in his investment. This new blender will mean an increase in his costs of $ per month, but he will achieve the same new output (an increase to ) as the change in labor…

“How many dozen should I put in the proofer?” asked Elizabeth, the new baker at the Sands Cafeteria. Rami El‐Hussieny was the day shift operations manager, and, unfortunately, he did not know how to answer Elizabeth's question. What she wanted to know was simple enough: How many dozen rolls should be placed in the proofer in anticipation of the night's dinner business? The problem was that the frozen dinner roll dough used at the Sands Cafeteria needed to be proof for at least 2 hours prior to being baked for 15 minutes. If too many rolls were proofed, they would never be needed, but they would still have to be baked and made into bread dressing or even tossed out. If too few dozen were proofed and the night was busier than anticipated, they would run out of “Fresh Baked Rolls” (one of the restaurant's signature items), and Rami knew that the night manager would be really upset. It was a daily guess, and sometimes Rami missed the guess! He wondered if a prebaked roll with a shelf life…
