Chapter 19, Problem 19.33P
Waiting times, manufacturing cycle times. The Sandstone Corporation uses an injection molding machine to make a plastic product, Z35, after receiving firm orders from its customers. Sandstone estimates that it will receive 60 orders for Z35 during the coming year. Each order of Z35 will take 100 hours of machine time. The annual machine capacity is 8,000 hours.
- 1. Calculate (a) the average amount of time that an order for Z35 will wait in line before it is processed and (b) the average manufacturing cycle time per order for Z35.
Required
- 2. Sandstone is considering introducing a new product, Y21. The company expects it will receive 30 orders of Y21 in the coming year. Each order of Y21 will take 40 hours of machine time. Assuming the demand for Z35 will not be affected by the introduction of Y21, calculate (a) the average waiting time for an order received and (b) the average manufacturing cycle time per order for each product, if Sandstone introduces Y21.

Nash Corporation manufactures and sells custom snowmobiles. From the time an order is placed till
the time the snowmobile reaches the customer averages 50 days. This 50 days is spent as follows:
Wait time: 10 days
Move time: 5 days
Process time: 15 days
Queue time: 15 days
Inspection time: 5 days
What is Nash's manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for its snowmobiles?

- Explain the computation needed. We have been producing product A for several years and look forward to several more years of sales at 500,000 units per year or 2,000 units per day. The present method requires a standard time of 2.0 mins per unit or 30 pcs per hour. At this rate, it takes 33.33 hrs to make 1,000 units. All production will run on the day shift. Present Method and Costs- with a labor rate of $10.00/hr, the labor cost will be $333.30 to produce 1,000 units. The cost of 500,000 units per year would be $166,650.00 in direct labor. New Method and Cost- we have a reduction idea. If we buy this new machine attachment for $1000, the new time standard would be lowered to 1.5 minutes per unit. Will this investment be good for us?arrow_forwardSoutheastern Bell stocks a certain switch connector at its central warehouse for supplying field service offices. The yearly demand for these connectors is 15,300 units. Southeastern estimates its annual holding cost for this item to be $23 per unit. The cost to place and process an order from the supplier is $74. The company operates 300 days per year, and the lead time to receive an order from the supplier is 2 working days. a) What is the economic order quantity? units (round your response to the nearest whole number).arrow_forwardWhat is the number of workdays in an order cycle?arrow_forward
- TimsTabletCo (TTC) produces tablet computers, and it must determine the number of units to be produced during each of the next four months. The following table gives the monthly demand and the monthly cost of producing each unit: Month 1 2 3 4 Demand (in units) 5000 2000 6000 1000 Production Cost (dollars per unit) 400 600 200 300 At the start, before Month 1, TTC has an inventory of 2000 units. Each month, up to 4000 units can be produced. TTC can use the units produced in a particular month in two ways: either use some units to satisfy the demand in the same month, or store some units in inventory for future use. The cost of storing units in inventory is $100 per unit per month. (a) Formulate an LP problem (P) to minimize the total cost of meeting the demands of the next four months. (b) Write the dual LP (D) of (P).arrow_forwardCan someone help me figure out this problem ? Pretty Lady Cosmetic Products has an average production process time of 40 days.
