Wizard Corporation has analyzed their customer and order handling data for the past year and has determined the following costs:     Order processing cost per order  $7 Additional costs if order must be expedited (rushed)  $10.00   Customer technical support calls (per call)  $12 Relationship management costs (per customer per year)  $1200   In addition to these costs, product costs amount to  75% of Sales.   In the prior year, Wizard had the following experience with one of its customers, Chester Company:   Sales  $15,500 Number of orders  160 Percent of orders marked rush  70% Calls to technical support  80     Required:   Calculate the profitability of the Chester Company account.

Management of Mittel Company would like to reduce the amount of time between when a customer places an order and when the order is shipped. For the first quarter of operations during the current year the following data were reported: Inspection time Wait time (from order to start of production) 0.6 days 16.0 days 2.6 days 1.4 days 4.3 days Process time Move time Queue time Required: 1. Compute the throughput time. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.) 2. Compute the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for the quarter. (Round your percentage answer to nearest whole percent.) 3. What percentage of the throughput time was spent in non-value-added activities? (Round your percentage answer to nearest whole percent.) 4. Compute the delivery cycle time. (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 1 decimal place.) 5. If by using Lean Production all queue time during production is eliminated, what will be the new MCE? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your…

Hello, I need help solving this accounting problem.

Deep South Glass Company is exploring different prediction models that can be used to forecast machine maintenance costs. One independent variable under consideration is machine hours. Following are matching observations on machine maintenance costs and machine hours for the past six months: Month Machine hours Machine Maintenance costs 1 300 $20,000 400 $24,000 3 240 $17,000 4 370 $22,000 5 200 $13,000 6 225 $14,000 In a high-low model, which months' observations would be used to compute the model's parameters? 4 and 5 1 and 6 2 and 6 O 2 and 5
