- A bicycle component manufacturer produces hubs for bike wheels. Two processes are possible for manufacturing, and the parameters of each process are as follows: Process 1 Process 2 35 parts/ hour 4 hours/ day 15 parts/hour 7 hours/day 20% 9% Production rate Daily production time Percent of parts rejeted based on visual inspection Assume that the daily demand for hubs allows all defect-free hubs to be sold. Additionally, tested or rejected hubs cannot be sold. Find the process that maximizes profit per day if each part is made from Php 200 worth of material and can be sold for Php 1,500. Both processes are fully automated, and variable overhead cost is charged at the rate of Php 2,000 per hour.arrow_forward3.Consider the following three-stage production process of glass ceramics. The process is experiencing severe quality problems related to insufficiently trained workers. Specifically, 20 percent of the parts going through operation 1 are badly processed by the operator. Rather than scrapping the unit, it is moved to a highly skilled rework operator, who can correct the mistake and finish up the unit completely within 15 minutes. The same problem occurs at station 2, where 10 percent of the parts are badly processed, requiring 10 minutes of rework. Station 3 also has a 10 percent ratio of badly processed parts, each of them requiring 5 minutes by the rework operator. a)What is the utilization of station 2 if work is released into the process at a rate of 5 units per hour? b)Where in the process is the bottleneck? Why? (Remember, the bottleneck is the resource with the lowest capacity, independent of demand.)arrow_forwardPete works for Home Depot at the paint counter. Customers often ask to match a color already in their home—a fabric, a rug, or an older paint. He has a talent for this and can do it quickly if the base colors are standardized. His first step is a visual check of his base colors—a white, a blue, a red, and a yellow. Identify what kind of steps is this and explain why?arrow_forward
- Wellplace Insurance Company processes insurance policy applications in batches of 50. One day, they had ten batches to process and, after inspection, it was found that four batches had nonconforming policies. One batch had three nonconformances, another had five, another had two, and another had one nonconformance. a. What were the proportion nonconforming for each batch? b. What were the nonconformances per unit (NPU) in total for the ten batches?arrow_forwardThe process of making a batch of paint in a paint factory consists of the following steps: First, the correct amount of raw materials must be mixed in the proper sequence. The operator must follow specified safety instructions. After mixing, a sample is drawn and taken to a laboratory, where it is tested to ensure conformance to customer requirements a and specifications. Next, the mixing tank is taken to a filling station and verified to be the correct one prior to filling individual cans of paint. The filled cans go to the packing department where labels are printed and applied to the cans. They are inspected to ensure that the labels are correct and the proper quantity was produced for the customers’ order. The cans are packed in boxes and moved to shipping. a.
