1) Total Managed cost - $ 1635658
Total Hour (Including idle) - 17520
Managed cost/hour = 93.35 (Total Managed Cost/Total Hours)
Total Hour ( only Manned Hours) - 8249.20
Managed cost/hour = 198.20 (Total Managed Cost/Manned Hours)
2) Estimated competitive cost for a good unit
To calculate estimated competitive capacity cost, we have to ignore loss due to non utilisation of capacity. Such loss shall be considered as inefficiency of the organisation.
Cost incurred in pure production shall be the best cost i.e. competitive cost of production for the organisation.
Total cost = Committed + Managed = 848371 + 1635658 = 2484029
Total productive hours (Manned Hours) = 8249.20
Unavoidable Delays / loss (As management policy) when carrying production = 3025.30
Total Hours = 17520
Cost / Hour = 141.78
Total competitive cost = 141.78*(8249.20+3025.30)
= 1598498.61
No. of good units produced = 4949000
competitive cost / unit = 0.3230 approx. (Total competitive cost/No.of good units produced)

5) Average cost of making a good unit = Total cost / Total no. of good units produced
= 2484029/4949000
=0.5019
6) Assuming that, the product that the given company produces has an unlimited demand i.e. whatever be the no. of units produced by the company, they will be sold in the market, I will suggest that production shall be increased to use the idle capacity of 9270.80 hours. This will more than double the profit of the organisation. Since, in the current situation idle capacity of the organisation is more than utilised capacity.
