Evaluating Quality
Grade Value
The quality level that a Meets the highest number of
product or service has needs at the lowest possible
relative to the inclusion or cost (purchase price plus
exclusion of characteristics operating, maintenance, and
to satisfy customer needs, disposal costs)
especially price
It’s too
expensive

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.

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.

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
