    Dear Sir,
    Good day to you.

    This is a question from the BPP Revision Kit:-

    —–Scenario—-
    Corrie
    Restricted process: Alpha ( 8 hours per day: X=1200 units/hr, Y=1500 units/hr, Z=600 units/hr)

    Throughput contribution/unit: (X=$80, Y=$80, Z=$200)
    Conversion Costs: $720,000 per day

    What is the conversion cost per factory hour?
    Answer: $90,000

    If the question were to be changed to:
    What is the throughput per factory hour?

    What would the answer be?

    Just a hypothetical question to cover my areas of doubt.
    Appreciate your kind help Sir

    X gives a throughput contribution of $80 per unit and they produce 1,200 units per hour.

    Therefore the throughput contribution per hour is 1,200 x $80 = $96,000.

    It would be similar workings for each of Y and Z.
