Question
The quality assurance department has found a defective unit. The cost of this unit was $75 in raw material, labor and overhead. There are now three options available to the organization.
· Scrap the unit
· Sell the defective unit at a reduced price of $40 or
· Rework the product at a cost of $35 and sell the unit for $85
Which one of the following options would be the most cost effective?
A. The item should be scrapped – as rework is a non-value added cost and should be eliminated or kept as low as possible.
B. The item should be sold as a defective unit – because this minimizes the scrap cost to $35 but avoids non-value added rework.
C. The item should be sold as a defective unit – as the total cost of the reworked product would be greater than the selling price.
D. The item should be reworked and sold – despite rework being a non-value added cost, because this leads to the lowest overall cost.
Summary

Corporate Finance can be a difficult topic if you do not get the proper guidance with your assignments. With TheReliableTutor I never have to worry about not understanding the corporate finance assignment material as the writing is always very lucid and absolutely comprehensible to all"
The best part about the assignments is the quality of writing that I have received every time. The “real world†examples collated locally from Singapore suggested by the online management assignment tutors with the corresponding requisite numbers help take the assignment several notches higher and have helped improve my grades.
I used to have nightmares about my C++ and Java programming assignments. I never could ever wrap my head around the object oriented programming languages till I came across HwA. Their programming tutors by far the best in the industry and they helped me get excellent scores.
Being a computer science engineer is my dream and it wouldn’t have possible for me to minutely understand the basics of C++ programming without the help of TheReliableTutor.com and the engineering assignment tutors. I grasped C programming on my own, but for C++ and Java, I am definitely grateful to TheReliableTutor.com
Had a great help with dynamic SQL programming in Oracle database from HwA and the experts are very helpful. I kept constant touch with HwA during my entire Oracle course and as a professional now, I must admit that I owe a lot to HwA for my success.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
