Question

Sandy's sauces, which produces stirminus fry âsauces, is developing direct material standards. each bottle of sauce requires 0.51 kilograms of base. the allowance for waste is 0.5 kilograms perâ bottle, while the allowance for rejects is 0.4 kilograms per bottle. what is the standard quantity of base perâ bottle

Answer 1

The standard quantity of base to be used for the sauce manufactured by Sandy's can be calculated by summing up all the given quantities. Mathematically, this can be expressed as,

Q = standard amount + allowance for waste + allowance for rejects

Substituting the known values from the given,


Q = 0.51 kg + 0.5 kg + 0.4 kg
Q = 1.41 kg

Therefore, Sandy's sauces should be able to quantify the amount of base needed for the systems and the answer to this item is equal to 1.41 kg.
