Answer:
Given:
Cost of Redesigning a form to reduce errors = $15,000
Cost of Responding to customer complaints = $75,000
Cost of Verifying the accuracy of a form = $30,000
Cost of Correcting errors in forms = $60,000
Sales = $3,000,000
Prevention costs is defined as the costs that incur to obviate or decrease the number of flaw at first places. Â is defined as the costs that incur to obviate or decrease the number of flaw at first places.
Here Prevention cost is computed as :
Prevention cost = Cost of Redesigning a form to reduce errors + Cost of Responding to customer complaints + Cost of Correcting errors in forms
Prevention cost = $15,000 + $75,000 + $60,000
Prevention cost = $ 150,000
∴ Prevention cost to total sales ratio = [tex]\frac{Prevention \: cost}{total \:sales\: ratio}[/tex]
Prevention cost to total sales ratio = [tex]\frac{150000}{3000000}[/tex]
Prevention cost to total sales ratio = 0.05
% Prevention cost to total sales = 5%
