At an output level of 18,000 units, you have calculated that the degree of operating leverage is 2.10. The operating cash flow is $46,500 in this case. Ignore the effect of taxes. a. What are fixed costs? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to the nearest whole number, e. g., 32.) b. What will the operating cash flow be if output rises to 19,000 units? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.) c. What will the operating cash flow be if output falls to 17,000 units? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e. g., 32.16.)

This exercise illustrates that poor quality can affect schedules and costs. a manufacturing process has 130 customer orders to fill. each order requires one component part that is purchased from a supplier. however, typically, 3% of the components are identified as defective, and the components can be assumed to be independent. (a) if the manufacturer stocks 130 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (b) if the manufacturer stocks 132 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (c) if the manufacturer stocks 135 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components?
