"He's struggling to learn our system," replied Frank Harrop, the operations manager. "The problem is that he's been away from process costing for a long time, and it's coming back slowly." "It's not just the format of his report that I'm concerned about. Look at that $4.986 unit cost that he's come up with for April. Doesn't that seem high to you?" said Ms. Scarpino. "Yes, it does seem high; but on the other hand, I know we had an increase in materials prices during April, and that may be the explanation," replied Mr. Harrop. "Ill get someone else to redo this report and then we may be able to see whats going on."
