1Q)The key difference between measuring process throughput, and measuring process capacity, is that capacity refers to a specific limit (i.e. maximum) amount of throughput that the process can handle.

a)True

b)False

c)Capacity and throughput are simply the same thing!

2Q)Which of the following actions will not increase resource levels a)Subcontracting b) Increasing the size of the resource units c) Scheduling overtime d) Reducing defects

3Q)Due to natural variations with process inputs (i.e. humans, machines, and how they interact together), we use a method known as "effective capacity" to measure overall system capacity because it accounts for.. a)individual resources b) overall resources c)activity level details (i.e. all unit loads) d)the maximum output rate e)All of the above

4Q)The image below represents a standard, repetitive build up and depletion of goods (input, in-process, or output inventory) known as cycle inventory. This is calculated as the average amount of inventory held over time period t. Which of the inventory cost elements utilizes this metric in its contribution to the total cost of carrying the inventory? IAvg = Q/2 a)Holding Cost b)Fixed Order Cost c)Material Cost d)All cost elements rely on Q/2

5Q)The image shown depicts a large capacity oven that is capable of producing 4 cooke products every 6 minutes of heat being applied to each row shown as it moves through the oven. This is known as a Batch Loaa. The effective capacity of this oven is _________________products per hour.

6Q)Consider a resource pool with 4 people trained to perform the same task. You've measured the average output from this pool to be 10 units per minute. Knowing this, you can work backwards to calculate how long the task is taking (i.e. the unit load) to be... a)0.3 minutes per unit b) 0.4 minutes per unit c)0.5 minutes per unit d) 0.6 minutes per unit

Please answer the above choose the coorect answers and a fill in the blank.
