Question
Chapter 12, Problem 4E
To determine
Lead Time: Lead time is the time consumed for the creation of a product. It refers to the time period between the time the order is placed and the product is completed. Lesser lead time creates a more competitive edge for the company.
Lead Time = Wait time + Process time + Queue time + Move time + Inspection Time
If the Company P is correct in calculating the lead time.
To determine
The lead time for each product.

Lead Time Analysis
Furry Friends Inc. manufactures toy stuffed animals. The direct labor time required to cut, sew, and stuff a toy is 10 minutes per unit. The company makes two types of stuffed toys—a lion and a bear. The lion is assembled in lot sizes of 50 units per batch, while the bear is assembled in lot sizes of 8 units per batch. Since each product has direct labor time of 10 minutes per unit, management has determined that the lead time for each product is 10 minutes.
a. Lead time includes ___, ___, and ___.
Value-added time, wait time and other non-value-added time.
Production time, packing time and value-added time.
Idle time, direct labor hours, and wait time.
None of the above.
b. A toy manufacturing unit produces two types of products and the labor time for the each product is 10 minutes. The batch size of product A is 50 units and batch size of product B is 8 units. The company considers the lead time of the products is equal to the labor hour’s. Is the decision…
Compute Lead Time
Jackson Fabricators Inc. machines metal parts for the automotive industry. Under the traditional manufacturing approach, the parts are machined through two processes: milling and finishing. Parts are produced in batch sizes of 50 parts. A part requires 5 minutes in milling and 10 minutes in finishing. The move time between the two operations for a complete batch is 11 minutes.
Under the lean philosophy, the part is produced in a cell that includes both the milling and finishing operations. The operating time is unchanged; however, the batch size is reduced to 6 parts and the move time is eliminated.
Determine the value-added, non-value-added, and total lead times, and the value-added ratio under the traditional and lean manufacturing methods. If required, round percentages to one decimal place.

- Vollmer Manufacturing makes three components for sale to refrigeration companies. The components are processed on two machines: a shaper and a grinder. The times (in minutes) required on each machine are as follows: The shaper is available for 120 hours, and the grinder for 110 hours. No more than 200 units of component 3 can be sold, but up to 1,000 units of each of the other components can be sold. In fact, the company already has orders for 600 units of component 1 that must be satisfied. The profit contributions for components 1, 2, and 3 are 8, 6, and 9, respectively. a. Formulate and solve for the recommended production quantities. b. What are the objective coefficient ranges for the three components? Interpret these ranges for company management. c. What are the right-hand-side ranges? Interpret these ranges for company management. d. If more time could be made available on the grinder, how much would it be worth? e. If more units of component 3 can be sold by reducing the sales price by 4, should the company reduce the price?arrow_forwardCarltons Kitchens makes two types of pasta makers: Strands and Shapes. The company expects to manufacture 70,000 units of Strands, which has a per-unit direct material cost of $10 and a per-unit direct labor cost of $60. It also expects to manufacture 30.000 units of Shapes, which has a per-unit material cost of $15 and a per-unit direct labor cost of $40. It is estimated that Strands will use 140,000 machine hours and Shapes will require 60,000 machine hours. Historically, the company has used the traditional allocation method and applied overhead at a rate of $21 per machine hour. It was determined that there were three cost pools, and the overhead for each cost pool is shown: The cost driver for each cost pool and its expected activity is shown: A.

During the past quarter, 24,000 units were produced, requiring 96,000 pounds of materials and 48,000 hours of labor. An engineering efficiency study commissioned by the local university revealed that Carsen can produce the same 24,000 units of output using either of the following two combinations of inputs: The cost of materials is 8 per pound; the cost of labor is 12 per hour. Required: 1. Compute the output-input ratio for each input of Combination F1. Does this represent a productivity improvement over the current use of inputs? What is the total dollar value of the improvement? Classify this as a technical or an allocative efficiency improvement. 2. Compute the output-input ratio for each input of Combination F2. Does this represent a productivity improvement over the current use of inputs? Now, compare these ratios to those of Combination F1. What has happened? 3. Compute the cost of producing 24,000 units of output using Combination F1. Compare this cost to the cost using Combination F2. Does moving from Combination F1 to Combination F2 represent a productivity improvement? Explain.arrow_forwardPower Corp. makes 2 products: blades for table saws and blades for handsaws. Each product passes through the sharpening machine area, which is the chief constraint during production. Handsaw blades take 15 minutes on the sharpening machine and have a contribution margin per blade of $15. Table saw blades take 20 minutes on the sharpening machine and have a contribution margin per blade of $35.

The production batch sizes are 50 units. The process time for each step is as follows: Line Item Description Time Process Step 1 6 minutes Process Step 2 12 minutes Process Step 3 9 minutes Process Step 4 3 minutes The time required to move each batch between steps is 6 minutes. In addition, the time to move raw materials to Process Step 1 is also 6 minutes, and the time to move completed units from Process Step 4 to finished goods inventory is 6 minutes. The new lean layout will allow the company to reduce the batch sizes from 50 units to 2 units. The time required to move each batch between steps and the inventory locations will be reduced to 1 minute. The processing time in each step will stay the same.
