Sifton Electronics Corporation manufactures and assembles electronic motor drives for video cameras. The company assembles the motor drives for several accounts. The process consists of a lean cell for each customer. The following information relates only to one customer's lean cell for the coming year. Projected labor and overhead, $7,370,000; materials costs, $28 per unit. Planned production included 4,000 hours to produce 27,500 motor drives. Actual production for August was 1,600 units, and motor drives shipped amounted to 1,380 units. From the foregoing information, determine the production costs transferred to Cost of Goods Sold during August.

Extreme Wreaths, Inc.  makes wreaths in batch sizes of 15 at a time. The cutting & assembly process takes 10 minutes per wreath, and the decorating process time is 7 minutes per wreath. It takes 5 minutes to move the wreaths from the cutting & assembly process to the decorating process. In a effort to improve the lead time, the company has tried reducing the batch size to 10 units. The new process is as follows: cutting & assembly process - 8 minutes. The decorating process is still 7 minutes per wreath. It takes 5 minutes to move the wreaths from the cutting & assembly process to the decorating process. (a) Compute the value-added, non-value-added, and the total lead time of the wreath process for both the old and the new manufacturing process. (b) Compute the value-added ratio for both the old and new process.  Round to the nearest decimal.
