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?

Aproduction department's output for the most recent month consisted of 8,000 units completed and transferred to the next stage of production and 5,000 units in ending work in process inventory. the units in ending work in process inventory were 50% complete with respect to both direct materials and conversion costs. calculate the equivalent units of production for the month, assuming the company uses the weighted average method.
