A cost analyst for Stamper Manufacturing Co. has assembled the following data about the Model 24 stamp pad: The piece of sheet metal from which 5 pad cases can be made costs $0.14. This amount is based on the number of sheets in a 3,500-pound bundle of sheet metal, which is the usual purchase quantity. The foam pad that is put in the case costs $0.06, based on the number of pads that can be cut from a large roll of foam. Production standards, based on engineering analysis recognizing attainable performance, provide for the manufacture of 1,880 pads by 1 workers in an eight-hour shift. The standard direct labor pay rate is $13.05 per hour.
