Consider a line consisting of only one machine. This machine takes on average 4 minutes (te=4 min) to complete a job and Ca2=Ce2=1. The arrival rate of the parts to this machine is 1/8 part/minutes. Assume that there is enough space for only 5 parts between the machines (Hint: the buffer size, b, is 5.) Compute the expected CT of this production line.
CT=_________
A CNC milling machine has a purchase price of £120,000 and it is considered from an accounting standpoint to be depreciated to zero value over a period of 5 years. If the machine is to be used for 2 shifts with each shift working for 37 hours/ week and 45 weeks/ year. What is the machine cost/ hr which must be charged in order to amortise/repay the costs over the 5 year period?
To make the calculation simpler, you can assume that over the 5 year period you will be required to pay back 8% interest on the sum borrowed.

- The production manager of a manufacturing firm has tracked the average repair and maintenance cost of a machine for 10 years. Cost averages were steady at Rs. 20,000 for the first five years, but have increased consistently by Rs. 5,000 for each of the last 5 years. Draw the cash flow diagram and calculate the equivalent present worth and annual worth of the costs, if interest rate is 6% per annum.arrow_forward1.

- Estimate the effort, time, production and the number of personnel necessary for the development of a Communications system that has a size of 30,000 LDC. In this project there are factors that influence the development and ensure the proper functioning of the system. These are: Complexity of development, staff qualification and advanced knowledge of the language in which it will be developed. Each factor in the order described has a weighted value of 1.15, 0.7 and 0.91 respectively. It is important to mention that the monthly payment per person working in the development is $2,200.arrow_forwardplease show the following solutions, cancellation of units and processes in between.arrow_forwardIn a casting machining company, it takes an operator 30 seconds to load ,15 seconds to unload each machining center.
