Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The input/output control report would track the production process and would therefore contain information about equipment failures on the shop floor. The vendor shortage report would track shortages of materials or supplies from vendors, and would not be an appropriate report for detecting equipment failures. The customer forecast report would track projected sales, and would not be an appropriate report for detecting equipment failures. The overhead allocation report would track expenses such as rent and utilities and would not contain information about equipment failures.
