At final inspection, Girardi 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.
