Customers are served in a process with two resources (workers in each resource work independently). The processing time (per worker) of the first resource is 1.2 hours. The processing time (per worker) of the second resource is 2.1 hours. The first resource has 3 workers and the second resource has 2 workers. Assume 2 workers are added to the process and all of them are assigned to one of the resources. What would be the capacity of this process? Note: Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 3 decimal places. Capacity of customers per hour

- In a furniture manufacturing facility, there is a drilling shop with semi-automated machines. For an operator, it takes 20 seconds for a worker to move from one machine to the other. To load a drilling job to the machines a worker spends 3 minutes. Once loaded machines finish the drilling job in 4 minutes. The worker spends 40 seconds to conduct a quality check for the finished parts. If two machines are allocated to a worker which of the following will be true? Machines will have idle time Neither machines nor the worker will have idle time The worker and the machines both will have idle time Worker will have idle timeA Company that makes shopping carts for supermarkets and other stores recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the shopping carts. Prior to buying the new equipment, the company used 7 workers, who produced an average of 87 carts per hour. Workers receive $15 per hour, and machine coast was $43 per hour. With the new equipment, it was possible to transfer one of the workers to another department, and equipment cost increased by $14 per hour while output increased by four carts per hour. a) Compute the multifactor productivity (MFP) (labor plus equipment) under the Prior to buying the new equipment. The MFP (carts/S) = Blank 1 (round to 4 decimal places). b) Compute the productivity changes between the Prior to and after buying the new equipment.

- Consider the problem of assigning multiple jdentical machines to an individual operator for the following situations: the loading and unloading time is 5 minutes, the independent operator activity time is 2 minutes, the independent machine activity time is 15 minutes. (a) How many machines should be assigned so that the operator will not be idle? What is the machine idle time in this case? (b) How many machines should be assigned so that machines will not be idle? What is the operator idle time in this case?An injector machine goes down roughly 20% of the time (the injector gums up and needs to be cleaned, a quick process). One operator is assigned to service three identical such machines. Each machine can produce 100 parts/h if running properly (i.e., not down). The operator is paid $10/h and each machine costs $20/h to operate. Consider 8hr/shift a) Please fill in the table below: b) How many parts can you produce per shift? c) What is the unit cost fper part for this operation? d) If you hire another operator at the same rate to assist the first operator, what is the unit cost now? e) Is it worth hiring another operator at the same rate to assist the first operator, in case more than one machine goes down at the same time?A company that makes shopping carts for supermarkets and other stores recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the shopping carts. Prior to buying the new equipment, the company used five workers, who produced an average of 80 carts per hour. Workers receive $10 per hour, and machine cost was $40 per hour.

- The manager of a large group of employees must decidewhether she needs another photocopying machine. Thecost of a machine is $40 per eight-hour day regardlessof whether the machine is in use. On average, fourpeople need to use the copying machine per hour. Eachperson uses the copier for an average of 10 minutes.Interarrival times and copying times are exponentiallydistributed. Employees are paid $8 per hour, and weassume that a waiting cost is incurred when a worker iswaiting in line or is using the copying machine. Howmany copying machines should be rented?Which of the following statements is TRUE? Group of answer choices The bottleneck resource is the one that determines the capacity of a process, and thus its utilization is always 100%. Because there is excess capacity compared to the bottleneck resource, non-bottleneck resource is always under-utilized, and its utilization is less than 100%. The bottleneck resource constrains the flow of the process, and thus the flow rate is always the same as the bottleneck capacity. When process is capacity constrained, utilization tells us by how much demand exceeds capacity. It is always necessary to add more capacity to the bottleneck stage to increase the Flow rate of the process.Consider a business process in which each order that arrives is split into two jobs that are performed in parallel and are then rejoined before leaving the system. Assume no variance in inter-arrival times nor in process times for each task. Each station (depicted by a rectangle) contains one or more identical parallel servers (depicted by circles). Each server is independent of all others and can work on one job at at a time. Process times for individual servers at station A are 5 minutes. Servers at stations B and C have process times of 3 and 6 minutes respectively. Consider the system with one server at each of the stations A and B as before, and two identical parallel servers (each with a 6 minute process time) at station C. What is the system's capacity? What is the cycle time for each order through the entire process flow?
