A. Which machine would is constraint in the plant?
B. Which product mix provides highest gross profit?
Product M= ______ units
Product N=_______units
C. What is the maximum weekly net profit this plant can earn using the product mix from Part b?
Part A is processed on a MILLING machine; Part B is processed on a LATHE machine. Two parts (A and B) are then assembled on an ASSEMBLY machine. Standard times, scrap rates, efficiency, and availability of each machine and the assembly are given in the table below. Determine the number of milling (M), the lathe (L) and the assembly (A) machines needed to produce 100 good parts from this production system during and 8-hour (480 minutes) shift. (Note: Round up the number of parts processed on each station and then round up the number of machines needed).

- Prevar Corporation currently purchases components from one of its suppliers. The current purchase price is $1500 per component, with annual purchase volume of 750 units. The ops manager believes that this component could be made inhouse with some minor modifications to the current factory set up. Fixed cost for dedicating a line for this component is estimated at $50,000. Raw materials for the component is estimated at $900, overhead at $200 and it would take 10 hours of labor (at $20 per hour) to produce each component.arrow_forwardSpartan Castings must implement a manufacturing process that reduces the amount of particulates emitted into the atmosphere. Two processes have been identified that provide the same level of particulate reduction. The first process is expected to incur $350,000 of fixed cost and add $50 of variable cost to each casting Spartan produces. The second process has fixed costs of $150,000 and adds $90 of variable cost per casting.a. What is the break-even quantity beyond which the first process is more attractive?b.

The radio/CD units are identical, but the mounting hardware and finish trim differ. The standard model fits intermediate and full-size cars, and the sports model fits small sports cars. Audio Products handles the production in the following way. The chassis (radio/CD unit) is assembled in Mexico and has a manufacturing lead time of two weeks. The mounting hardware is purchased from a sheet steel company and has a three-week lead time. The finish trim is purchased from a Taiwan electronics company with offices in Los Angeles as prepackaged units consisting of knobs and various trim pieces. Trim packages have a two week lead time. Final assembly time may be disregarded because adding the trim package and mounting are performed by the customer.
