Summary Introduction

Case summary:

The case deals about the store that manufactures old Oregon tables. There are four employees (Person T, Person G, Person L, and Person C), who deal with the operations such as preparation, assembly, finishing, and packaging. Each one would deal with a specific operation. However, all the four are able to do all the four operations. Person R is hired to perform major duties and help when the employees are absent. The time taken by each employee to perform every task is as follows:

Preparation Assembly Finishing Packaging
Person T 100 60 90 25
Person G 80 80 60 10
Person L 110 90 80 10
Person C 120 70 100 25
Person R 110 80 100 10
