Production: ” In a recent paper, Glock (2010a) studied the impact of variable production rates on the build-up of inventory in a two-stage production system and showed that deviating from the ‘design production rate’ of the system may reduce the system’s total costs. This is important, as varying the production rate gives production planners flexibility in smoothing material flows and in avoiding the accumulation of inventory at bottleneck stations.” Since Albatross Anchors has such inefficiencies when it

has occurred to cause an effect in the balance sheet. 2. Draw a production function that exhibits diminishing marginal product of labour. Draw the associated total-cost curve. (In both cases, be sure to label the axes.) Explain the shapes of the two curves you have drawn. We know that the average product of labour is the total product of labour divided by the number of units of labour employed. At low production levels the average cost tends to increases as additional labour is added. The

other variable inputs is $400,000 per day with the total fixed cost equals $1,000,000.00. In order to determine whether this plant will require a reduction in force or if they can maintain at the current rate for a short period of time or longer they must run the following statistics. Total variable cost = (number of workers *Workers Daily Wage) + other variable Costs which equals to (50,000 *80) + 400,000 = 4,400,000.00 Average Variable Cost = Total variable cost/units of output per day which equals
