Coleman Rich, Ltd., has received the followingorders:
The entire fabrication for these units is scheduled on onemachine. There are 2,250 usable minutes in a week, and eachunit will take 65 minutes to complete. Develop a capacityplan, using lot splitting, for the 10-week time period
Given the following master production schedule require-ments and bill of labor, determine the work load in each
work center for January. Given a 40-hour week and four
weeks per month, how many workers would need to be as-signed to each work center to meet demand? Assume part-time workers are available.
Describe the techniques to deal with bottleneck operations and some of those techniques that does not decrease throughput time ?

Your capacity measure is number of machines. Three products (men’s, women’s, and children’s sandals) are manufactured. The time standards (processing and setup), lot sizes, and demand forecasts are given in the following table. The firm operates two 8-hour shifts, 5 days per week, 50 weeks per year. Experience shows that a capacity cushion of 5 percent is sufficient. Time Standards Product Processing (hr/pair) Setup (hr/pair) Lot Size (pairs/lot) Demand Forecast (pairs/yr) Men’s sandals 0.05 0.5 240 80,000 Women’s sandals 0.10 2.2 180 60,000 Children’s sandals 0.02 3.8 360 120,000 a.
