Workshape Manufacturing has two classes of distributors: JIT distributors and non-JIT distributors. The JIT distributor places small, frequent orders, and the non-JIT distributor tends to place larger, less frequent orders.

Both types of distributors purchase the same product.

Answer:

d. $672.41 per service call

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the activity rate for servicing goods is shown below:

= (Total servicing good cost) ÷ (Total service calls)

= $195,000 ÷ 290

= $672.41 per service call

The total service call would be

= JIT distributors + Non-JIT distributors

= 200 + 90

= 290

All other information which is given is not relevant. Hence, ignored it
