Case Analysis of National Cranberry Cooperative Team1. Report I. Summary <Process Flow Chart> <Operations> 1) Receiving and Testing ☞ RECEIVING * 243 trucks deliver 75 barrels(=7500 pounds) per truck on average * 75*243 = 18225 barrels (1822500 pounds) * Last truck arrived (1140min) – First truck arrived (411min) = 729min (=1140 - 411) → 729min/60 = 12.15hrs (Total receiving time) ∴ For 12.15hours, 243 trucks delivered 18225 barrels. NCC receives 1500barrels/hr. - Delivering 75 barrels per truck - Capacity at each Dumper = 75 (barrel/truck) * 6 (trucks/hr) = 450 barrels/hr : Total capacity of 5 dumpers = 450 (barrel/hr) * 5 (dupms) = 2250 barrels/hr …show more content…
3 dryers are used for Bagging and Bulking berries processing. ( 3 * 200 (barrels/hr) = 600 (barrels/hr) ☞Process of Dry Berries(no drying) * Destoning : 3 * 1500 barrels/hr = 4500 barrels/hr * Dechaffing : 30% of total are processed in dry process = 1500 barrels/hr ☞Process of Wet Berries(no destining) * Dechaffing: 70% of total are processed in wet process (1500 * 2) = 3000 barrels/hr * Drying: 3 * 200 barrels/hr = 600 barrels/hr → Bottleneck 4) Miling – Quality Grading ☞ Miling * Average Effective Capacity of 3 Separator Lines were 400 barrels/hr each, 1200 barrels/hr (=400 *3), as a whole 5) Scheduling the Work force ☞ Scheduling the Work force * From 9/1~12/15, RP1 Process requires 27 or 53 workers per week according to the amount of berries * Non-peak season ( 27 workers required) ∙ 6 of 27 workers at receiving (2 teams of 3 workers each working at Kiwanee dumpers) ∙ 10 of 27 workers at miling area (1 team of 5 workers per 1 feed conveyor each -> 2 teams) ∙ 8 of 27 workers at shipping (5 at baggin stations, 1 at 2 bulk stations, 2 at bulk bin station management) ∙ 1 of 27 workers at supervising destining, dechaffing, drying process ∙ 2 of 27 workers at control room by 2 shifts ☞ Peak season (53 workers required) * 15 of 53 workers
5. At Spotted Cow Coffee Shop, one cashier can take 30 orders per hour and one skilled worker can prepare 20 orders per hour. Assume that the cashier and the worker are not cross-trained.

The assignment method was used in determining ways that the schedule can be change to maximize production while reducing idle time, completion time, and potentially labor costs. Using the information that was provided, Operator A will cost $10.00 for the first job, $11.00 for the second, $9.00 for the third, and $10.00 for the fourth. Operator B will cost $12.00 for the first job, $9.00 for the second job, $8.00 for the third, and $8.00 for the fourth. Operator C similarly will cost $11.00 for the first, $11.00 for the second, $11.00 for the third, and $9.00 for the fourth. Last, Operator D will cost $11.00 for the first, $11.00 for the second, $9.00 for the third, and $10.00 for the fourth. While
Your trip data reflects that you scheduled transportation to attend a 7:45 am appointment. You were given a 5:45 am estimated pick-up time, and a 1:30 pm pick-up time for the return trip.

8. (TCO 3) The Marinade Department began the period with 150,000 units. During the period the department received another 180,000 units from the prior department and at the end of the period 112,000 units remained which were 17% complete. How much are equivalent units in The Marinade Department’s work in process inventory at the end of the period? (Points : 2)
The dryers are only capable of processing 600 barrels per hour. The milling process is utilized at the same time as the dryers, therefore it limits the capacity to 800 bbls per hour.
1120 / block / 25 per day = 44.8 days/block for façade capacity =324/44.8 = 7.2 blocks for façade.
