Chapter 5, Problem 47E
Cycle Time and Velocity
In the first quarter of operations, a manufacturing cell produced 80,000 stereo speakers, using 20,000 production hours. In the second quarter, the cycle time was 10 minutes per unit with the same number of production hours as were used in the first quarter.
Required:
- 1. Compute the velocity (per hour) for the first quarter.
- 2. Compute the cycle time for the first quarter (minutes per unit produced).
- 3. How many units were produced in the second quarter?

On this basis, the fixed costs are assigned, which, in unit terms, amount to:General and administrative expenses $25.00Selling expenses $5.00Unit variable costs are fully proportional to production and sales, and amount to:Direct Labor $18.00Materials $14.50Manufacturing overhead $8.00 The price of the product in the market is $90 and the commissions to the sellers correspond to 5% of the sales. The company is studying the possibility of closing for a time that could reach 2 years, due to a period of depression that is estimated to affect the industry in that period, a fact that would reduce its activity levels to 20% of its normal capacity. If it closes, fixed charges could be reduced by 30%, and if it continues to operate, the reduction would only reach 15%.
