Hence, at a production level of 500 units, the total electric cost is $8,000 [$3,000 + ($10 x 500)]. The mixed cost illustrated in the above chart is called a step function. An example of such cost behavior would be the total salary expense for shift supervisors.
Product Summary. A plastic tack is a kind of tack made of the material of plastic which is a material of a wide range of synthetic or semi-synthetic organic solids used in the manufacture of industrial products. Plastics are typically polymers of high molecular mass, and may contain other substances to improve performance and/or reduce production costs.
The PT-1000 Polyken Probe Tack Testers, manufactured by ChemInstruments, Inc., are designed to measure the tack of pressure sensitive adhesives. A precision ground 5.0 mm diameter, flat probe contacts the adhesive, reverses direction and pulls away from the adhesive. The maximum force required to break the adhesive bond is recorded and displayed.
