Explanation:

In determining the amount of non-value adding cost,Flagler number of hours used in setup process is compared to that of its competitor.As a result of comparison, it came to light that Flagler used two more hours in setup process.

The extra hours do not necessarily make Flagler better,instead it makes worse off, as extra $300(2hrs*$150) would have to be incurred without any benefits derived.

This extra costs that do not make the organization better off and  do not add value,so it the non-value adding costs.

(8hrs-6hrs)*$150=$300
