How would you establish good relationship with your suppliers?

Depending on your cash/credit posistion you can try this; Offer your suppliers better than average terms, offer to buy the first small round of supplies with cash and establish your need for this supplier. Next time order more supplies and ask and offer to pay for 75% in cash and ask for 25% of your order to be held on NET 30 terms, keep progressing in to this relationship and pay your credit terms on time. This builds faith with your suppliers.

In time some of your suppliers "if asked" may go out much further if they know that your history is good. I recently had a supplier agree to go out 190 days on terms for a VERY large project that we undertook. It was a Gov Contract and my vendor knew that I was capable and the money would be there in time.

Just be up front and honest, and that will get you most places you need to go.

Why is forging and rolling a preferred processes to casting?

Forging and rolling are preferred over casting primarily due to their ability to produce stronger and more uniform materials. These processes align the grain structure of the metal, enhancing its mechanical properties and minimizing defects. Additionally, forging and rolling typically result in better dimensional accuracy and surface finish, reducing the need for extensive machining. Overall, these methods offer improved performance for applications requiring high strength and durability.

What is the difference in the flow of costs between manufacturing and service organizations?

In a service organisation which uses job-order costing, the cost of inputs brought from outside (subcontracted work) is comparable to the cost of direct materials used in a manufacturing organisation. Similarly, the direct staff costs in a service organisation correspond with the direct labour costs in a manufacturing organisation. The office overhead expenses in a service organisation is similar to the manufacturing overhead in a manufacturing organisation. The cost of any completed work is simlar to the cost of finished goods inventory in a manufacturing organisation. Basically the names of the accounts used in a service organisation are different to those used in a manufacturing organisation. The work-in-process account in a service organisation would therefore have cost of subcontracted work, direct staff cost and office overhead cost on the debit side; the cost of completed work would be on the credit side. Other than the terminology, everything else in the flow of costs remains the same. The pre-determined overhead rate can be calculated by using an overhead allocation base such as direct staff costs and each completed job can be allocated with the appropriate portion of the estimated overhead based on the actual direct staff costs incurred on the project.
