Backwoods American, Inc., produces expensive water-repellent, down-lined parkas. Currently, the cost of producing each parka is estimated to be $55. This company is planning to produce approximately 2000 parkas in the next year. The quality manager of the company has estimated that, with the current situation, 15% of the parkas produced will be defective and only 60% of the defective parkas can be reworked. The rework cost is estimated to be $10.

The quality management department has suggested to upgrade the sewing machine to reduce the percentage of defective items. With this upgrade, the cost of producing each parka will be 60$ and the percentage of defective items will be 8%. The rework cost and the percentage of defective items that can be reworked do not change with this upgrade.
