You have just been given the following production report: JAN FEB MAR APR Units produced 2,300 1,800 2,800 3,000 Hours per machine 325 200 400 320 Number of machines 3 5 4 4 Find the average of the monthly productivity figures (units per machine hour). (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.) Average productivity 2.06 correct units per machine hour

Answer: 2.36

Explanation: Hours per machine * # of machines

325 * 3 = 975

Units produced/ Machine Hour

2,300/975 = 2.36

The average of the monthly productivity figures is 2.36.

"Manager can be defined as a person who is in charge of managing or looking after an organization he is an acting leader who helps in delegating the responsibilities as well as setting the goals also he possesses some leadership qualities that help in running an organization smoothly."

In total there are 3 units that are producing that the operation manager needs to focus on intaking the decision.

Total machine hour is calculated as:

Hours per machine * number of machines

= 325 * 3

= 975

The average of monthly productivity  that the operating manager needs to incur for the smooth running of the business is:

Units produced/ Machine Hour

= 2,300/975

g Benton, Inc. has decided to discontinue manufacturing its Quantum model personal organizer. Currently the company has a number of partially completed personal organizers on hand. The company has spent $111 per unit to manufacture these organizers. To complete each unit, costs of $14 for material and $15 for direct labor will be incurred. In addition, $9 of variable overhead and $34 of allocated fixed overhead (relating primarily to depreciation of plant and equipment) will be added per unit. If Benton, Inc., completes the organizers, it can sell them for $124 per unit. Another manufacturer is interested in purchasing the partially completed organizers for $107 per unit and converting them into inventory tracking devices. Determine whether Benton should complete the personal organizers or sell them in their current state.
