The solution to this exercise is to determine if the cost per pound trends in paper
stock, conversion, and coating costs are remaining stable over time. The
following table can be developed from the data:
a. January February March April May June
Paper stock
($ ÷ pounds output) $0.70 $0.70 $0.70 $0.70 $0.70 $0.70
Coating
b. Operator 1 believes that energy consumption is becoming less efficient. The
energy cost is part of the conversion cost. The conversion cost per output
remaining stable.
Operator 3 is concerned about coating costs. The coating cost per output
pound is increasing over time. Thus, we can conclude that the coating
efficiency is declining over time. Apparently, twice the coating material was
being spread per pound of output in June than in January. The coating

The Hawkeye Machining managers are displaying typical fears to a just-in-time
processing system. Just-in-time removes the safety provided by materials, in-
process, and finished goods inventory balances. Indeed, these types of comments
The in-process inventories can be reduced significantly if the underlying
manufacturing processes are made reliable. The director of manufacturing is
correct in his observation, but his solution is wrong. The solution is not to
increase inventory but to improve the reliability of the machines so that they do
not experience emergency breakdowns. Thus, the manufacturing operation must
