Answer: ____
I'm trying to find the capacity of a current line (on a conveyor-paced assembly). Each worker must perform at least one task. There are 6 tasks. Time to complete each task, starting with task 1, is 30, 25, 35, 40, 15, and 30 - all in seconds. There are 4 workers. Worker 1 completes Task 1; Worker 2 completes Task 2; Worker 3 completes Tasks 3 and 4; and Worker 4 completes Task 5 and 6.
An order for 200 units of a product is processed on work
centers A and B. The
set up time on A is 45 minutes and the run time is 5 minutes per piece. The
set up time on B is 40 minutes and the run time is 8 minutes per piece. The
wait time between the two operations is 2 hours. The move time between A
and B is 15 minutes. Wait time after operation B is 1 hour and the move time
into stores is 50 minutes. There is no queue at either work station. Calculate
the total manufacturing lead time for the order.

- A roller coaster is being designed for a new theme park. Two "trains" are on the track at any given time. One train is being unloaded/reloaded while the other is moving along the track. The track itself takes 10 minutes to complete. The train being loaded should depart before the arriving train is no closer than one minute away. Each car of a train accommodates four people. Loading a car is estimated to take 6 seconds per passenger. Unloading is estimated to take 6 seconds per passenger. Suppose that (unlike actual roller coasters), only one car can be loaded or unloaded at a time. Unloading can NOT occur at the same time as loading. In order to maximize the number of potential passengers, how many cars should the train be made up of? Round your answer to the nearest whole car.arrow_forwardAuthor: Leo A. Ruggle, Professor, Department of Accounting, Mankato State University Arnie Armstrong has been with Pierce Auto Parts Manufacturing Company for 23 years. Recently, he was appointed Director of Manufacturing Computer Services. In just six weeks in this new position, [he] has moved to reduce the amount of information provided to manufacturing department managers by 60 percent. He argues that excess data is distracting, unused, and expensive to provide. Willy McClean has been department manager for 12 years. During a coffee break with some of his department production supervisors, Willy is quite vocal about the change. “Who’s this guy Armstrong to tell us what data we need? He needs to be out here for a few weeks to find out what it’s like. Keep it quiet, but I’ve got a contact in Computer Services who’ll get me all the data analyses I want for just a $20 bill each month. It’s a good deal, and Armstrong will never know.

It competes with other firms to win contracts to provide such systems. When Codeword receives a contract, it creates a project to complete the work. Most projects range from $10 million to $50 million in cost and from one to three years in duration. Codeword can have 6 to 12 projects going on at any one time, in various stages of completion—some just starting and others finishing. Codeword has a handful of project managers who report to the general manager; other people report to their functional manager. For example, the electronics engineers all report to the manager of electrical engineering, who reports to the general manager. The functional manager assigns particular individuals to work on various projects. Some people work full-time on a project, whereas others split their time among two or three projects. Although individuals are assigned to work for a project…arrow_forward
- The Fly-Right Airplane Company builds small jet airplanes to sell to corporations for use by their executives. To meet the needs of these executives, the company's customers sometimes order a custom design of the airplanes being purchased. When this occurs, a substantial start-up cost is incurred to initiate the production of these airplanes. Fly-Right has recently received purchase requests from three customers with short deadlines. However, because the company's production facilities already are almost completely tied up filling previous orders, it will not be able to accept all three orders. Therefore, a decision now needs to be made on the number of airplanes the company will agree to produce (if any) for each of the three customers. The relevant data are given in the next table. The first row gives the start-up cost required to initiate the production of the airplanes for each customer. Once production is under way. the marginal net revenue (which is the purchase price minus the…arrow_forwardIn the PMT function, what is not true about the Num_periods argument?

Each unit of 'B' is comprised of one unit of 'D', two units of 'E', and one unit of 'F'. Each unit of 'C' requires ½ unit of 'G' and three units of 'H'. The manufacturing lead times for the components are as follows: 'A' - two weeks, 'B' - one week, 'C' - two weeks, 'D' - two weeks, 'E' - three weeks, 'F' - one week, 'G' - two weeks, 'H' - one week. There are 20 units in stock for each of these components. 100 units of 'A' are needed for delivery in seven weeks: a) Develop the product structure and indexed bill of materials for the product. b) Create a gross and net requirements plan for the manufacturer of the product.arrow_forward
