- Use excel to show formulas 1. A company is designing a product layout for a new product. They plan to use this production line 16 hours a day in order to meet forecasted demand of 1200 units per day. For output to equal forecasted demand, what should be the actual cycle time for this production?The effective capacity and efficiency for the next quarter at MMU Mfg. in Waco, Texas, for each of three departments are shown: Compute the expected production for next quarter for each department.The design capacity for car workshop in a company is 110 cars per week. The effective capacity is 95 cars per week and the actual output for this week was 88 cars. If the utilization for next week is expected to be 70%, then the expected output is (...................) cars per week. Answer:
- (Please apply indifference point formula for this exercise) 1. The school cafeteria can make pizza for approximately $0.30 per slice. The cost of the kitchen use and cafeteria staff runs about $200 per day. The Pizza Den nearby will deliver whole pizzas for $9.00 each. The cafeteria staff cuts the pizza into eight (8) pieces and serves them in the usual cafeteria line. With no cooking duties, the staff can be reduced by half, for a fixed cost of $75 per day. Should the school cafeteria make or buy pizza? Calculations are needed to justify the answer. (Please apply the indifference point formula for this exercise). Excel spreadsheet would be great!.A small firm intends to increase the capacity of a bottleneck operation for producing a product by adding a new machine. Two alternatives, A and B, have been identified and the associated costs and revenues have been estimated. Annual fixed costs would be $30000 for A and $25,000 for B; variable costs per unit would be $10 for A and $12 for B; and the revenue per unit would be $25. i. Find the total cost functions for alternatives A and B, and the revenue function ii. Draw both the total cost functions and the revenue function in the same figure. iii. Find the break-even point for the alternatives A and B and show it in the figure iv. Is there any volume of output at which both the alternatives yield the same profit? If so, show it in the figure. If not, identify the volume of output at which the alternatives are indifferentJack has gathered the following information for Work Center 2, the work center that directly feeds Work Center 3.
