A manufacturing company decides which of three mutually exclusive products to make on the basis of throughput accounting ratio. Machine hours are the bottleneck resource. Selling price, material cost, and machine hours per unit are: The Economic Times + 2 Product X: $60, $40, 10 hours Product Y: $40, $10, 20 hours Product Z: $20, $16, 2.5 hours Which of the following actions would improve the company's existing throughput accounting ratio?

A manufacturing company uses machine C, operational for 5 hours a day, to manufacture four products: W, X, Y, and Z. Factory costs are $150,000 per day. The company uses throughput accounting to maximize profits. Product details: - W: Production rate = 200 units/hr, Selling price = $350, Material cost = $120, Conversion cost = $40 - X: Production rate = 500 units/hr, Selling price = $190, Material cost = $95, Conversion cost = $25 - Y: Production rate = 400 units/hr, Selling price = $270, Material cost = $160, Conversion cost = $20 - Z: Production rate = 350 units/hr, Selling price = $215, Material cost = $75, Conversion cost = $35 If machine C operational hours cannot be increased, what is the production ranking of product Y based on throughput per machine hour?

A company produces three products D, E and F. The per unit figures are as follows: Selling price: D = $32, E = $28, F = $22 Direct material: D = $10, E = $8, F = $6 Direct labour: D = $6, E = $4, F = $4 Variable overhead: D = $4, E = $2, F = $2 Time in Process A: D = 20 mins, E = 25 mins, F = 15 mins Process A is the bottleneck. If a throughput accounting approach is used, what will be the ranking of products in order of priority for profit maximization?
