Question:

(Comprehensive; weighted average) Caunitz Company produces mops. Department 1 winds and cuts cotton into mop heads and transfers these to Department 2 where the mop head is twisted and attached to a handle. Cotton is added at the beginning of the first process, and the handle is added at the end of the second process.

Normal losses in Department 1 should not exceed 5 percent of the units started; losses are determined at an inspection point at the end of the production process. The AQF in Department 2 is 10 percent of the mop heads transferred in; losses are found at an inspection point located 70 percent of the way through the production process.
