Izzy's Limited produces no defective units but it wants to reduce direct materials usage per unit of XT15. Manufacturing conversion costs in each year depend on production capacity defined in terms of XT15 units that can be produced. Selling and customer-service costs depend on the number of customers that the customer and service functions are designed to support. Izzy's Limited had 165 customers in 2017 and 170 customers in 2018.
