An order for a metal fabrication requires production processes from two departments as follows: 1. Laser cutting 2. Folding/bending and welding The laser cutting is costed on a machine hour rate basis and has already been determined to be £2500 for this order. Determine the total cost of this fabrication given the following information The bending and welding department requires 30 hours of labour costed at £15 per hour The folding/bending and welding department has an annual overhead of £216k to absorb The total annual labour hours for this department are 3600 hours (overheads are absorbed on this basis) The direct cost of materials for this fabrication is £800. What is the total production cost of this order?

In a casting machining company, it takes an operator 15 seconds to load and 15 seconds to unload each machining center. There are several same centers, all working on the same type of part, and the duration of the automatic operation is 1 minute. Given that the cost per hour of the operator and the cost per hour of the machine is $10, using the man-machine diagram, determine the value of the highest production rate for the system.
A worker is currently responsible for tending two machines in a machine cluster. The service time per machine is 0.35 min and the time to walk between machines is 0.15 min.The machine automatic cycle time is 1.90 min. If the worker’s hourly rate = $12/hr andthe hourly rate for each machine = $18/hr, determine (a) the current hourly rate for thecluster, and (b) the current cost per unit of product, given that two units are produced byeach machine during each machine cycle. (c) What is the percent idle time of the worker?(d) What is the optimum number of machines that should be used in the machine cluster, ifminimum cost per unit of product is the decision criterion?
Q1. Discuss the evaluation guidelines for manufacturing processes.
A flow-line mass production operation consists of six manual workstations. Work units are moved synchronously and automatically between stations, with a transfer time of 10 secs. The manual processing operations performed at the six stations take 45 sec, 50 sec, 40 sec, 42 sec, 30 sec, and 55 sec, respectively. Determine (a) cycle time for the line, (b) time to process one work until through the six workstations, (c) average production rate, and (d) time to produce 20,000 units.
The annual requirement of rivets at a ship manufacturing company is 2000 kg. The rivets are supplied in units of 1 kg costing Rs. 25 each. If it costs Rs. 100 to place an order and the annual cost of carrying one unit is 9% of its purchase cost, the cycle length of the order (in days) will be_______
A toy manufacturing uses 51030 rubber wheels per year for its popular dump truck series. The firm makes its own wheels, which it can can produce at a rate of 800 per day. The toy trucks are assembled uniformly ( at a constant rate ) over the entire year. Carrying cost is $ 1.50 per wheel per year. setup cost for the production run of the wheel is $ 47. The firm operatyes 243 days per year. Determine each of the following: 1-Optimal run size 2-Use your final answer from part 1 to determine minimum total annual cost for carrying and setup 3-Cycle time for the optimal run size 4-Run time
In a factory where there are three shifts: The machine overhead cost is found to be £8.20 / hr, the labour overhead cost is found to be £30.20/hr, and the premises overhead cost is found to be £3.50/hr. Using the principle of overhead costing: If a single component takes 23 minutes to manufacture on the milling machine. What is the cost / part? You should include machine costs, labour costs and premises costs in your answer, but you can neglect material and energy costs. Express your answer in £ rounded up to the nearest penny.
The annual demand for an item is 10,000 units. The unit cost is Rs. 100 and inventory carrying charges are 14.4% of the unit cost per annum. The cost of one procurement is Rs. 2000. The time between two consecutive orders to meet the above demand is _______ month
A chemical firm produces sodium bisulfate in 100-pound bags. Demand for this product is 20 tonsper day. The capacity for producing the product is 50 tons per day. Setup costs $100, and storage andhandling costs are $5 per ton a year. The firm operates 200 days a year. (Note: 1 ton = 2,000 pounds.)a. How many bags per run are optimal?b. What would the average inventory be for this lot size?c. Determine the approximate length of a production run, in days.d. About how many runs per year would there be?e. How much could the company save annually if the setup cost could be reduced to $25 per run?
The M–N plant manufactures two different products: M and N. Selling prices and weeklymarket demands are shown in the following diagram. Each product uses raw materialswith costs as shown. The plant has three different machines: A, B, and C. Each performsdifferent tasks and can work on only one unit of material at a time.Process times for each task are shown in the diagram. Each machine is available2,400 minutes per week. There are no “Murphys” (major opportunities for the system tofoul up). Setup and transfer times are zero. Demand is constant.Operating expenses (including labor) total a constant $12,000 per week. Raw materialsare not included in weekly operating expenses.a. Where is the constraint in this plant?b. What product mix provides the highest proi t?c. What is the maximum weekly proi t this plant can earn?
c. The life of a manufactured product is assumed to have gone through eight (8) stages. List and explain all stages using diagrams where necessary.
An emergency situation has arisen in the milling department, because the ship carrying a certain quantity of a required part from an overseas supplier sank on Friday evening. A certain number of machines in the department must therefore be dedicated to the production of this part during the next week. A total of 1000 of these parts must be produced, and the production cycle time per part = 16.0 min. Each milling machine used for this rush job must first be set up, which takes 5.0 hr. A scrap rate of 2% can be expected. Assume availability = 100%. (a)If the production week consists of 10 shifts at 8.0 hr/shift, how many machines will be required? (b)It so happens that only two milling machines can be spared for this emergency job, due to other priority jobs in the department. To cope with the emergency situation, plant management has authorized a three-shift operation for six days next week. Can the 1000 replacement parts be completed within these constraints?
