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.

My main concern was the research that needed to be done for the human resources assignments for my undergraduate program. Keeping up with the course load and assignments from the other professors I was having a tough time. With TheReliableTutor, the tutors help out with the research saving my time and assisting me in submitting well researched and balanced assignments.
I often used to get baffled by the Theory X and Theory Y of management strategies when my friend told me to seek help from HwA. It was a great advice, I must say, because it helped me to get good grades and clear my concepts.
I am very panicky about deadlines. I was using another service prior to TheReliableTutor.com and they often missed the deadlines. That is why I shifted to TheReliableTutor.com and have never had reason to complain again.
When it was time for me to start on my Stats Thesis Paper I was at a complete loss. I did not know where to begin even. That is when I contacted the experts at TheReliableTutor and the process from then on was as smooth as it could be. From the selection of the topic to reviewing the existing literature and finally putting it all together, I would not have been able to do any of it as well as I have without the constant help and support of the Stats Thesis Writing Expert at TheReliableTutor.
1. I am studying macroeconomics in one of the top institutes in London. I never thought i would be facing so much trouble distinguishing between macroeconomics and microeconomics. But with TheReliableTutor.com’s econ expert tutors with their extensive knowledge in the subject and years of experience have made studying so much easier for me now! Best thing is I can chat with my online Economics tutor and get the status of the assignment instantly."

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
