Pro = 2,000 units

Mid = 500 units

Explanation:

Step 1 Establish if we have a limiting factor in Production

Smash Company has 4,000 Machine Hours Available

Demand of Machine Hours:

Pro ( 2,000× 1 hr per unit) = 2,000 hrs

Mid ( 6,000× 4hrs per unit) = 24,000 hrs

Total = 26,000 hrs

Machine Hours Required > Available Machine Hour

Therefore Machine Hours are a limiting factor !!

Step 2 Calculate the Contribution per unit of limiting factor (machine hours) for each unit

Pro

Contribution = Sales-Variable Costs

= $ 500 - $ 125

= $ 375

Contribution per unit of limiting factor = Contribution per Unit / limiting factor required per unit

= $ 375/ 1 hours

= $375

Mid

Contribution = Sales-Variable Costs

= $ 125 - $ 80

= $ 45

Contribution per unit of limiting factor = Contribution per Unit / limiting factor required per unit

= $ 45 / 4 hours

= $ 11.25

Step 3 Rank the Products

1-Pro

2-Mid

Step 4 Determine mix

Utilization of Hours Available

Pro = 2,000 hrs

Mid (4,000 - 2,000) = 2,000 hrs

Total Available Hours = 4,000 hrs

Product Mix is therefore :

Pro 2,000 /1 = 2,000

Mid 2,000 / 4 = 500

The advantage of administering personality tests on employees is that it will allow the employer to know the mindset and personality of the employee. this will allow the employer to at least have an idea as to how the employee works and how his attitude in the workplace. the disadvantage is that it may make the employee a little anxious as to whether he would meet the personality requirements of the employer and whether he would be able to retain the job or not.
