As the production planner for Xiangling Hu Products, Inc., you have been given a bill of material for a bracket that is made up of a base, 1 spring, and 3 clamps. The base is assembled from 2 clamps and 2 housings. Each clamp has 1 handle and 2 castings. Each housing has 1 bearing and 2 shafts. There is no inventory on hand.
This exercise contains only parts b and c.
The product structure is as follows:

Canine Kennels Company (CKC) manufactures two different types of dog chew toys (A and B, sold in 1,000-count boxes) that are manufactured and assembled on three different workstations (W, X, and Y) using a small-batch process (see the figure below). Batch setup times are negligible. The flowchart denotes the path each product follows through the manufacturing process, and each product's price, demand per week, and processing times per unit are indicated as well. Purchased parts and raw materials consumed during production are represented by inverted triangles. CKC can make and sell up to the limit of its demand per week; no penalties are incurred for not being able to meet all the demand. Each workstation is staffed by a worker who is dedicated to working on that workstation alone and is paid $6 per hour. Total labor costs per week are fixed. Variable overhead costs are $3,500/week. The plant operates one 8-hour shift per day or 40 hours/week.

The aggregate plan has specified a 40-hour week (four days of 10 hours each) for next week. In sequencing the production, she schedules the products in the same family (as determined during MPS), but also tries to assign allergens toward the end of a day and stronger flavours (e.g., mint) after weaker flavours, and to keep availability of ingredients in mind.

The I Love Operations Management (ILOM) Conference, a major international conference, is staffed by student volunteers. One of the tasks of the student volunteers is to register conference attendees. The registration process involves confirming that fees have been paid, retrieving a conference package specific to that person (filed under their last name), and passing on relevant information about the conference. In 2023, conference registration will be handled by a group of 10 student volunteers who work in five pairs to register the attendees (i.e., each pair will together register one attendee at a time). Attendees line up in a common line to be served by the next available pair of volunteers.
