Q.5
7 Star Sports Co. (7SSC) is engaged in the manufacture of cricket bats. Following table shows the budgeted
figures for the coming year:
Components like willow, rubber grip and handle bar in a set, are bought in and an assembling process
carried out to transform them into a single bat. Market is intensely competitive where 7SSC currently holds
30% market share. Annual demand of these bats is 1,00,000 units.
On reviewing previous performance it is revealed that 3% of the bats supplied to customers were returned
for free replacement because of faults. Defective components, which are initially bought in to assembling
process, are held responsible for this. These returned bats cannot be repaired and have no scrap value.
Supply of faulty bats to customers could be eliminated by implementing an inspection process immediately
before the goods are delivered. This would improve customer perception thus resulting in an increase of 5%
in current market share (making in all a total share of 35%).
Required
(i) Calculate the quality non-conformance cost for the coming year, based on the budgeted figures and sales
returns rate.
(ii) Calculate the impact on profitability due to implementation of inspection process for the bats.

has to rush order tape packages which costs ` 4 per package.
Comment whether UVIC should implement JIT purchasing system.
Hindustan Tape Company (HTC) also supplies video tapes. It agrees to supply @ ` 136 per package under
JIT delivery system. If video tape purchased from HTC, relevant carrying cost would be ` 3 per package
against ` 3.10 in case of purchasing from ITC. However HTC. doesn’t enjoy so sterling a reputation for
quality. UVIC anticipates following negative aspects of purchasing tapes from HTC.

Q.29
If Moonlite Limited operates its plant at normal capacity it produces 2,00,000 units from the plant
'Meghdoot'. The unit cost of manufacturing at normal capacity is as under:
Direct labour cost represents the compensation to highly-skilled workers, who are permanent employees of
the company. The company cannot afford to lose them. One labour hour is required to complete one unit of
the product.
The company sells its product for ` 200 per unit with variable selling expenses of ` 16 per unit. The
company estimates that due to economic down turn, it will not be able to operate the plant at the normal
capacity, at least during the next year. It is evaluating the feasibility of shutting down the plant temporarily
for one year. If it shuts down the plant, the fixed manufacturing overhead will be reduced to` 1,25,000. The
overhead costs are incurred at a uniform rate throughout the year. It is also estimated that the additional
cost of shutting down will be ` 50,000 and the cost of re-opening will be ` 1,00,000.
Required
Calculate the minimum level of production at which it will be economically beneficial to continue to operate
the plant next year if 50% of the labour hours can be utilized in another activity, which is expected to
contribute at the rate of ` 40 per labour hour. The additional activity will relate to a job which will be off-
loaded by a sister company only if the company decides to shut down the plant.
(Assume that the cost structure will remain unchanged next year. Ignore income tax and time value of
money)

of the completed heads. 4% of the spoiled heads can be salvaged and sold as scrap at ` 10 per spoiled head.
In the department machining and assembling the mallets, 6 men work 8 hours per day for 25 days in a month. Each
