On far toomany occasions, customers have not been able to purchasethe bread of their choice. Because of the size of the store, nonew ovens can be added. At a staff meeting, one employeesuggested ways to load the ovens differently so that moreloaves of bread can be baked at one time. This new processwill require that the ovens be loaded by hand, requiring addi-tional manpower. This is the only thing to be changed.

- Acme Steel Fabricators experienced booming business forthe past five years. The company fabricates a wide range ofsteel products, such as railings, ladders, and light structuralsteel framing. The current manual method of materials han-dling is causing excessive inventories and congestion. Acmeis considering the purchase of an overhead rail-mountedhoist system or a forklift truck to increase capacity and im-prove manufacturing efficiency.The annual pretax payoff from the system depends on futuredemand. If demand stays at the current level, the probabilityof which is 0.50, annual savings from the overhead hoist willbe $10,000. If demand rises, the hoist will save $25,000 annu-ally because of operating efficiencies in addition to new sales.Finally, if demand falls, the hoist will result in an estimatedannual loss of $65,000. The probability is estimated to be 0.30for higher demand and 0.20 for lower demand.If the forklift is purchased, annual payoffs will be $5,000if demand is unchanged,…Havana House restaurant normally seats 100, but during hours at dinnertime an additional 50 seats are made available by opening an attached banquet room.

In January, the company produces fifteen-thousand windows and ended the monthwith nine-thousand windows in inventory. Glass For Sale’s management team would like to develop a production schedule for the next three months. A smooth production schedule is obviously desirable due to the fact that it maintains the current workforce and provides a similar month-to-month operation. However, given the sales forecasts, the production capacities, and the storage capabilities as shown in Table two, the management teamdoes not think a smooth production schedule with the same production quantity each month is possible. The company’s cost accounting department estimates that increasing production by one window from one month to the next will increase total costs by one dollar for each unit increase in the production level. In addition, decreasing production by one unit from one month to the next…
