Concord Company uses the FIFO method to compute equivalent units. It has 4000 units in beginning work in process, 20% complete as to conversion costs and 50% complete as to materials costs, 67000 units started, and 5800 units in ending work in process, 30% complete as to conversion costs, and 80% complete as to materials cost. How much are the equivalent units for materials under the FIFO method?

Aproduction line has three machines a, b, and c, with reliabilities of .96, .86, and .85, respectively. the machines are arranged so that if one breaks down, the others must shut down. engineers are weighing two alternative designs for increasing the line’s reliability. plan 1 involves adding an identical backup line, and plan 2 involves providing a backup for each machine. in either case, three machines (a, b, and c) would be used with reliabilities equal to the original three. a. compute overall system reliability under plan 1. (round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) reliability b. compute overall system reliability under plan 2. (round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 4 decimal places.) reliability c. which plan will provide the higher reliability? plan2plan1
