Sharpening your pencil is an operation that may be divided into eight small elemental motions. In MTM terms, each element may be assigned a certain number of TMUs:                             What is the tota l normal time for sharpening one pencil? Convert your answer into minutes and seconds.
At Maggard Micro Manufacturing, Inc., workers press semicon-ductors into predrilled slots on printed circuit boards. The elemen-tal motions for normal time used by the company are as follows: Reach 6 inches for semiconductors 40 TMUGrasp the semiconductor 10 TMUMove semiconductor to printed circuit board 30 TMUPosition semiconductor 35 TMUPress semiconductor into slots 65 TMUMove board aside 20 TMU (Each time measurement unit is equal to .0006 min.)Determine the normal time for this operation in minutes andin seconds.
The time study of a work operation at a restaurant yielded an observed time of 4 minutes. The analysis rated the observed worker at 85%. This means the worker performed at 85% of normal when the study was made. The firm uses a 13% allowance factor. The restaurant wants to compute the normal time and the standard time for this operation;
