Cycle Time and Velocity Norton Company has the following data for one of its production departments: Theoretical velocity: 530 units per hour Productive minutes available per year: 70,000,000 Annual conversion costs: $420,000,000 Actual velocity: 265 units per hour Required: 1. Calculate the actual conversion cost per unit using actual cycle time and the standard cost per minute. Round your actual cycle time answer to three decimal places and your cost per unit answer to the nearest cent. Actual cycle time 0.226 minutes per unit Standard cost per minute Conversion cost per unit 6 per minute 1.356 x per unit 2. Calculate the ideal conversion cost per unit using theoretical cycle time and the standard cost per minute. If required, round your intermediate calculations and final answers to two decimal places. Theoretical cycle time 0.113 x minutes per unit Conversion cost per unit 0.678 X per unit What incentive exists for managers when cycle time costing is used? To increase cycle time X 3. What if the actual velocity is 371 units per hour? What is the conversion cost per unit? If required, round your intermediate calculations and final answers to two decimal places. Actual cycle time 0.162 x minutes per unit Conversion cost per unit 0.972 x per unit Feedback Check My Work 1. Actual cycle time = Time Units produced. Standard cost per minute = Cell conversion costs = Minutes available. Conversion Cost per unit = Standard cost per minute x Actual cycle time. 2. Theoretical cycle time = Time = Theoretical velocity. Calculate the ideal conversion cost per unit. 3. See Cornerstone 13.1
