Figure 1.2 Overview of repetitive manufacturing process Note In the product cost collector, the product, not the individual production lot, is the cost object. In other words, a product cost collector is nothing but a grouping of certain individual lots into one big order. The grouping can be either by production line or by products. The idea is to analyze the cost by period rather than by individual lots. 1.2.1 Rationale for Using the Repetitive Manufacturing Model T h e b u s i n e s s g o a l s h e r e a r e s i m i l a r t o t h o s e f o r m a k e - t o - s t o c k d i s c r e t e p r o d u c t i o n, a n d t h e y a r e : I m p r o v e c u s t o m e r s e r v i c e b y s a t i s f y i n g c u s t o m e r d e m a n d f o r a n o r g a n i z a t i o n s p r o d u c t s i m m e d i a t e l y.
