A.J.’s Wildlife Emporium manufactures two unique birdfeed-ers (Deluxe and Super Duper) that are manufactured andassembled in up to three different workstations (X, Y, Z) us-ing a small batch process. Each of the products is producedaccording to the flowchart in Figure 5.14. Additionally, theflowchart indicates each product’s price, weekly demand,and processing times per unit. Batch setup times are neg-ligible. A.J. can make and sell up to the limit of its weeklydemand and there are no penalties for not being able to meetall of the demand. Each workstation is staffed by a workerwho is dedicated to work on that workstation alone and ispaid $16 per hour. The plant operates 40 hours per week,with no overtime. Overhead costs are $2,000 per week. Basedon the information provided, as well as the information con-tained in the flowchart, answer the following questions.a. Using the traditional method, which bases decisionssolely on a product’s contribution to profits and over-head, what is the…

Apples are prepared in a process with two resources. The first resource has a capacity of 2.1 apples per minute. The capacity of the second resource is 4.4 apples per minute. Demand for this process is 1.6 apples per minute. What is the cycle process in seconds?
A copy center in an office building prepares bound reports for two clients. The center makes multiple copies (thelot size) of each report. The processing time to run, collate, and bind each copy depends on, among other fac-tors, the number of pages. The center operates 250 days per year, with one 8-hour shift. Management believesthat a capacity cushion of 15 percent (beyond the allowance built into time standards) is best. It currently hasthree copy machines. Based on the following table of information, determine how many machines are neededat the copy center Item Client X Client YAnnual demand forecast (copies) 2,000 6,000Standard processing time (hour/copy) 0.5 0.7Average lot size (copies per report) 20 30Standard setup time (hours) 0.25 0.40

First question in the image Question N0 2: A production line has an hourly throughput rate 6 products per hour. The average throughput time of the line is 7 hours, calculate the average work-in-process inventory. Can u please answer both of the questions
Given the following information, compute the takt time: Total time per shift is 480 minutesper day, and there are two shifts per day. There are two 20-minute rest breaks and a 30-minuteexcel lunch break per shift. Daily demand is 80 units.
XYZ makes two types of products using 4 machines for 8 hours each day. Product A visits machines 1, 2 and 4. Product B visits machines 1 and 3. The capacity is 0.6 unit per minute at machine 1. 0.12 unit per minute at machine 2. 0.2 unit per minute at machine 3, and 0.5 unit per minute at machine 4. The demand per dav is 40 units for product A and 160 units per day for product B. Determine the implied utilization (IU) of all resources. What is the bottleneck ? Why ?. Show all formulas used, calculations and results.
Up, Up, and Away is a producer of kites and wind socks.Relevant data on a bottleneck operation in the shop for theupcoming fiscal year are given in the following table:Item Kites Wind SocksDemand forecast 30,000 units/year 12,000 units/yearLot size 20 units 70 unitsStandard processing time 0.3 hour/unit 1.0 hour/unitStandard setup time 3.0 hours/lot 4.0 hours/lotThe shop works two shifts per day, 8 hours per shift, 200 daysper year. Currently, the company operates four machines,and desires a 25 percent capacity cushion. How many ma-chines should be purchased to meet the upcoming year’s de-mand without resorting to any short-term capacity solutions?
2-The process of making hotdogs involves six activities: “grind”, “mix”, “stuff”, “cook”, “peel”, and “inspect”. If the capacity of activity “cook” determines the process capacity, which of the following statements are true? a- Activity “cook” is a bottleneck activity. b- The activity time of all the other five activities is shorter than activity "cook". c- Cycle time of the process of making hotdogs is equal=1/capacity of activity “cook”. d- Increasing the capacity of activity “grind” can increase the capacity of the process of making hotdogs. All statements are correct Only statement 'b' is correct Only statements 'a' and 'b' are correct Only statements 'a', 'b' and 'c' are correct Only statement 'a' is correct Only statement 'd' is correct
Compute the takt time for a system where the total time per shift is 420 minutes, there is one shift, and workers are given 3 11-minute breaks and 40 minutes for lunch. Daily demand is 347 units.
