On page 32, Alex and his team learn some things about robot efficiencies. Rogo notes, "To give the robots more to do, we released more materials. Which in turn, increased inventories. Which has increased our costs." In their defense, Lou notes: "But the cost of each part went down." The table below displays information about the robots in the Chip Installer Department: Capacity per Hour 25 parts 25 parts 25 parts 25 parts Efficiency (Percent of Maximum Capacity) 30% 40% 50% 100% Parts Produced Needed per Hour per Hour Parts Cost ??? ??? ??? 25 13 13 13 13 per Hour Cost per Part $20 ??? $20 ??? $20 ??? $20 ??? How much lower is the Cost Per Part at 100% efficiency versus only 50% efficiency? Please calculate your answer using dollars and cents (as in $7.17) and round down to the nearest completed part.
