At final inspection, Lloyd discovered that 33 motors did not meet the exacting specifications established by the customer. An examination indicated that 18 motors were beyond repair and should be sold as spoiled goods for $75 each. The remaining 15 motors, though defective, could be reconditioned as first-quality units by the addition of $1,650 for materials, $1,500 for labor, and $1,200 for factory overhead.

  2. 2. The correction of the 15 defective motors, with the additional cost charged to the specific job.
  3. 3. The additional cost of replacing the 18 spoiled motors with new motors.
  4. 4. The sale of the spoiled motors for $75 each.
  5. 5. If the reconditioned motors sell for $400 each, is Lloyd better off reconditioning the defective motors or selling them as is for $75 as spoiled goods?
