incurred to ensure that products and services
meet customer’s expectations.

 Costs of Nonconformance or Noncompliance


– costs incurred and opportunity costs
because of rejection of products or services.

Cost of Quality = Conformance costs +

 costs incurred to avoid poor-quality goods or services or
reduce the number of defects in products or services.
 Systems development

 Quality engineering, Quality training, Quality circles

 Statistical process control activities

 Supervision of prevention activities

 Quality data gathering, analysis and reporting

prevention fails
 also called inspection costs, are incurred to identify products
before the products are shipped to customers.

Just-in-Time (JIT) Production System
 also called lean production, is a demand-pull
manufacturing system because each
component in a production line is produced as
soon as and only when needed by the next
step in the production line.

 It smooths the flow of goods, despite low or no


quantities of inventory.

Just-in-Time (JIT) Production System
 It aims to simultaneously:
 meet customers demand in a timely way,

 with high-quality products, and

 at the lowest possible total cost.

 Key Features:
 Maintaining a limited number of suppliers

 Improving plant layout

 Reducing setup time

 Improving production scheduling

 Targeting zero defects

 Maintaining flexible workforce

ILLUSTRATION
The Corporation, a manufacturer of copper fittings, is considering
implementing a JIT production system. The following data are gathered:
1. P100,000 annual tooling costs to reduce setup times must be
incurred.
2. Average inventory will be reduced by P500,000.
3. Relevant costs of insurance, storage, materials handling, and setup
will be declined by P30,000 per year.
4. Required rate of return on inventory investments is 10% per year.
5. Quality will be improved and rework will be reduced on 500 units per
year, resulting in savings of P50 per unit.
6. Better quality and faster delivery will enable the company to charge
P2 more per unit on the 20,000 units it sells each year.

Question: Should the corporation implement the JIT system?

accessible website, in whole or in part.
ANSWER 
Total annual relevant benefits and cost savings
Carrying costs [(10% x P500,000)+30,000] P 80,000
Rework savings (500 units x P50) 25,000
P105,000
Incremental contribution margin (20,000 x P2) 40,000
Total Benefits P145,000

Less: Additional annual tooling costs (P100,000)


Net Benefits P 45,000

Given the following computation, it shows that the total


benefits exceeds the costs. Hence, the company should implement a
JIT production system.

Performance Measures & Control in JIT
Production
 Financial performance measures
 inventory turn-over ratio is expected to increase

 Nonfinancial performance measures of time, inventory and


quality
 Manufacturing lead time - expected to decrease
 Units produced per hour - expected to increase
 Number of days of inventory on hand - expected to decrease

 Total setup time for machines/ Total manufacturing time –


expected to decrease
 Rework or Scrap/ Total number of units started & completed
– expected to decrease

JIT effects on Costing System
 reduces overhead costs through the reduction of
materials handling, warehousing and inspection
costs.

 facilitates direct tracing of some costs usually


classified as indirect.
