Because of its excellent product and excellent location, demand has increased by 5555% in the last year. On far too many occasions, customers have not been able to purchase the bread of their choice. Because of the size of the store, no new ovens can be added. At a staff meeting, one employee suggested ways to load the ovens differently so that more loaves of bread can be baked at one time. This new process will require that the ovens be loaded by hand, requiring additional manpower. This is the only production change that will be made in order to meet the increased demand. The bakery currently makes 1,800 loaves per month. Employees are paid $8 per hour. In addition to the labor cost, Charles also has a constant utility cost per month of $800 and a per loaf ingredient cost of $0.35 Current multifactor productivity for 640 work hours per month =0.27loaves/dollar (round your response to three decimal places).arrow_forward

Step 1 requires 4 minutes per unit, step 2 requires 6 minutes per unit, and step 3 requires 7 minutes per unit. 20% of units that complete the third step require rework, which means those units must start the process over at step 2 (processing times are the same for units being reworked) and rework is always successful. Demand at the shop is 0.4 units per minute. What is the capacity of the shop (in units per minute)?arrow_forward
