Question:

Suppose you wanted to redesign a stapler to have fewer components. (You should be able to find a stapler at a local discount store.) How much did it cost? How many parts does it have? Make up a "new parts" list and indicate which parts would have to be redesigned and which parts would be eliminated. Estimate the manufacturing cost of the stapler assuming that manufacturing costs are 40% of the selling price. What are the disadvantages of your new stapler design versus the old stapler?
