A production process consists of a three-step operation. The
scrap rate is 15 percent for the first step and 8 percent for the
other two steps.
a. If the desired daily output is 498
units, how many units must be started to allow for loss due to
scrap? (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round
up your final answer to the next whole number.)
b. If the scrap rate for each step could
be cut in half at every operation, how many units would this save
in terms of the scrap allowance? (Do not round
intermediate calculations. Round up your final answer to the
next whole number.)
