Measures of Internal Business Process Performance
DataSpan, Inc., automated its plant at the start of the current year and installed a flexible manufacturing system. The company is also evaluating its suppliers and moving toward Lean Production. Many adjustment problems have been encountered, including problems relating to performance measurement. After much study, the company has decided to use the performance measures below, and it has gathered data relating to these measures for the first four months of operations.
Management has asked for your help in computing throughput time, delivery cycle time, and MCE. The following average times have been logged over the last four months:
Required:
1. For each month, compute the following:
a. The throughput time.
b. The delivery cycle time.
c. The manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE).
2. Evaluate the company's performance over the last four months.
3. Refer to the move time, process time, and so forth, given above for mouth 4.
a. Assume that in mouth 5 the move time, process time, and so forth, are the same as in month 4, except that through the use of Lean Production the company is able to completely eliminate the queue time during production. Compute the new throughput time and MCE.
b. Assume in mouth 6 that the move time, process time, and so forth, are again the same as in mouth 4, except that the company is able to completely eliminate both the queue time during production and the inspection time. Compute the new throughput time and MCE.

- On December 31, 2018, Blackpink Company, a financing institution lent ₱15,000,000 to YG Corp. due 3 years after. The loan is supported by an 12% note receivable. Based on the company’s initial estimates the present value of the 12 months expected credit loss (ECL) discounted at 10% is at 2,000,000. The probability of default (PD) is at 7%. Blackpink Company was able to collect interest as it became due at the end of 2019. There was no evidence of significant increase in credit risk by the end 2019 and that the receivable is determined to have “low credit risk”. There were no changes in its initial estimate of the 12 months expected credit loss either. By the end of 2020, Blackpink Company was able to collect interest as it became due. Based on available forward-looking information (determinable without undue cost or effort), however, there is evidence that there was a significant increase in credit risk by the end of 2020. Blackpink Company therefore had to change its basis…arrow_forwardOn December 31, 2018, Blackpink Company, a financing institution lent ₱15,000,000 to YG Corp. due 3 years after.
