a)

Summary Introduction

To determine: The service beginning time of Customer 3.

Introduction: Simulation is the model that can be used in operations, which would imitate the real world process. Simulation uses random sampling for the generation of realistic variability.

b)

QUESTION 1 A multiple channel queuing system with a Poisson arrival rate, and an exponential service time distribution has an average arrival rate of 2.5 customers per hour and an average service time of eighty minutes per customer. A queuing system is described as unstable or overloaded if its utilization rate is greater than, or equal to one. For the system just described, what is the minimum number of servers required to retain stability i.e., to avoid overloading? A. 3 B. 2 C. 4 D. 1 QUESTION 2 Customers arrive at the lone check-out desk of a certain convenience store at the average rate of 0.23 per minute. If it takes on average four minutes for the store manager to serve each customer, how many customers will on average find themselves waiting in the queue? A. 3.20 B. 0.00351 C. 0.00024 D. 10.58
Question 4 A petrol station in the capital Kingstown has a single pump manned by one attendant. Vehicles arrive at the rate of 20 customers per hour and petrol filling takes 2 minutes on an average. Assume the arrival rate is Poisson probability distribution and service rate is exponentially distributed. Arrivals tend to follow a Poisson distribution, and service times tend to be exponential. The attendant is paid $10 per hour, but because of lost goodwill and sales, station loses about $15 per hour of customer time spent waiting for the attendant to service and order. Part A Answer the following questions based on single channel model: a. What is the probability that no customers are in the system (Po)?! b. What is the average number of customers waiting for service (Lq)? c. What is the average number of customers in the system (L)?………….. d. What is the average time a customer waits for service (Wq)?! e. What is the average time in the system (W)?❤❤ s f. What is the probability that a…
QUESTION 1 (a) An art dealer's client is willing to buy the Sunflower painting at $50,000. The dealer can buy the painting today for $40,000 or can wait a day and buy the painting tomorrow (if it has not been sold) for $30,000. The dealer may also wait another day and buy the painting (if it is still available) for $26,000. At the end of the third day, the painting will no longer be available for sale. Each day, there is a 0.60 probability that the painting will be sold. Construct a decision tree and determine the strategy that will maximize the dealer's expected profit.
