This exercise illustrates that poor quality can affect schedules and costs. a manufacturing process has 130 customer orders to fill. each order requires one component part that is purchased from a supplier. however, typically, 3% of the components are identified as defective, and the components can be assumed to be independent. (a) if the manufacturer stocks 130 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (b) if the manufacturer stocks 132 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components? (c) if the manufacturer stocks 135 components, what is the probability that the 130 orders can be filled without reordering components?

Within the relevant range, if there is a change in the level of the cost driver, then a. total fixed costs will remain the same and total variable costs will change b. total fixed costs will change and total variable costs will remain the same c. total fixed costs and total variable costs will change d. total fixed costs and total variable costs will remain the same

*will mark brainliest! * when a company spends resources (labor, money) to give customers "free" items, those costs are called a. investment costs b. economic costs c. scarcity costs d. opportunity costs answer asap!
