Required:
1. Assume initially that the value-stream costs and total units shipped apply only to one model (a single-product value stream). Calculate the unit cost, and comment on its accuracy.
2. Calculate the unit cost for Models A and B, and comment on its accuracy. Explain the rationale for using units shipped instead of units produced in the calculation.
3. What if Model A is responsible for 40 percent of the materials cost? Show how the unit cost would be adjusted for this condition.LO1
