Skysong Itzek manufactures and sells homemade wine, and he wants to develop a standard cost per gallon. The following are required for production of a 50-gallon batch. 3,800 ounces of grape concentrate at $0.07 per ounce 54 pounds of granulated sugar at $0.45 per pound 60 lemons at $0.70 each 150 yeast tablets at $0.28 each 200 nutrient tablets at $0.17 each 1,900 ounces of water at $0.005 per ounce Skysong estimates that 5% of the grape concentrate is wasted, 10% of the sugar is lost, and 25% of the lemons cannot be used. Compute the standard cost of the ingredients for one gallon of wine. (Round intermediate calculations and final answer to 2 decimal places, e.g. 1.25.) Standard Cost Per Gallon $

Answer:

Skysong Itzek

Standard Cost Per Gallon = $8.36

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Requirements for the production of a 50-gallon batch:

Materials                                         Quantity       Price               Total costs

Ounces of grape concentrate         3,800      $0.07/ounce           $266.00

Pounds of granulated sugar                 54      $0.45/pound               24.30

Lemons                                                  60      $0.70 each                  42.00

Tablets of yeast                                   150       $0.28 each                 42.00

Tablets of nutrient                              200       $0.17 each                  34.00

Ounces of water                              1,900        $0.005/ounce             9.50

Total costs                                                                                         $417.80

Standard cost per unit  = Total material costs/Batch Quantity

= $417.80/50 = $8.36

b) Since the estimated wastages of grape concentrate, sugar, and lemons are of no further use, the full costs of the direct materials are used in determining the standard cost.  The standard cost is, therefore, equal to the total material costs divided by the batch quantity.

You are the manager for a Pizza restaurant. Currently, your restaurant pre-makes pizzas that are ordered the most to increase the number of pizzas being made on time for your customers. Over time, many customers have complained that their pizzas were cold upon delivery and not fresh, requesting refunds or remakes of their pizza. Your location is losing money from these wasteful practices, therefore, you want to create a Kanban based on the following basic principles:

1. A later process tells an earlier process when new items are required. This means that unless a customer orders a pizza, no pizzas will be made. Pull!
2. The earlier process produces what the later process needs.
3. No Items can be made without a Kanban card (order request). This allows the process to be transparent so everyone knows what is going on.
4. Defects are not passed on to the next stage.Create a Kanban board for your pizza company that delivers. You must have 4-6 columns with headings for each.

Required:
Decide what your Kanban cards will represent. Set Rules for your Kanban.

What are the different aspects by which an emerging technology is defined?
What are the different aspects by which an emerging technology is defined?
(you can choose more than one sentence)
Emerging technologies are mostly those that arise from new knowledge. Emerging technologies may develop in new markets, this makes it easier to determine their demand. However, at times, the market for this technology may be non-existent. These technologies can be evaluated by using existing technologies as heuristics. SCORE is an example of a heuristic evaluation method. There are no standard methods used to evaluate emerging technologies.

Cost of Normal Spoilage
Frieling Company installs granite countertops in customers' homes. First, the customer chooses the particular granite slab, and then Frieling measures the countertop area at the customer's home, cuts the granite to that shape, and installs it. The Tramel job calls for direct materials of $1,900 and direct labor of $500. Overhead is applied at the rate of 140 percent of direct labor cost.

Betram Chemicals Company processes a number of chemical compounds used in producing industrial cleaning products. One compound is decomposed into two chemicals: anderine and dofinol. The cost of processing one batch of compound is $73,000, and the result is 5,600 gallons of anderine and 7,600 gallons of dofinol. Betram Chemicals can sell the anderine at split-off for $13.00 per gallon and the dofinol for $7.45 per gallon. Alternatively, the anderine can be processed further at a cost of $7.50 per gallon (of anderine) into cermine. It takes 2 gallons of anderine for every gallon of cermine. A gallon of cermine sells for $65.
Required:
1. List the relevant benefits and costs for each alternative.
2. Which alternative is more cost effective and by how much?
3. What if the production of anderine into cermine required additional purchasing and quality inspection activity? Every 500 gallons of anderine that undergo further processing required 20 more purchase orders at $10 each and 15 more quality inspection hours at $25 each. Which alternative would be better and by how much?
