Prepare a multiple-year trend report for each category of quality costs?

3 Marshek Industries has the theoretical capability to produce 119,000 units per month but currently produces 102,000 units. The conversion cost for the month is $3,750,000. There are 8,500 production hours available within the plant per month. In addition to processing time, to produce a unit takes 15 minutes of move time and 10 minutes of wait time.

Required:
1. Compute the theoretical and actual velocities per hour
2. Compute the theoretical and actual cycle times (minutes per unit produced)
3. Compute the MCE
