Question 14 when there is only funding available to improve one step in a process: (3-9 It should be the step that, after improvement expenses, results in the highest contribution. It should always be the most expensive step. (9 It should always be the rst step, because quality should start at the beginning. It should always be the last step, because more valueuadded is scrapped there. Question 15 When process confon'nance quality is improved: ()9 Variable cost per good unit and number of good units produced for a given amount of inputs both decrease. Variable cost per good unit decreases and number of good units produced for a given amount of inputs increases. Variable cost per good unit and number of good units produced for a given amount of inputs both increase ([9 Variable cost per good unit increases and number of good units produced for a given amount of inputs decreases. Question 16 A product is produced in three steps, with the variable cost added at each step and the yield at each step as listed below: Variable Cost Added at This Step If the selling price is $56!. and there are enough materials and labor to start out to produce 1000 units at Step 1. what is the contribution at current quality levels? Assume units are inspected after each step and defective units are scrapped.
