  1. A time study analyst conducted a time study and calculated OT as 23.5 minutes for a process. The analyst also measured Activity Factor (AF) as 102% or 02. What is the Standard Time (ST) for this process if Allowance (A) is 14%?
    1. 30 minutes
    2. 27.33 minutes
    3. 24.2 minutes
    4. 26.79 minutes
    5. None of the above

Following information will be required to answer questions 3-7.

Following information is available from a snap back time study conducted on a Universal Milling machine. Machines do not need any allowances.

  • Average observed manual time = 15 min
  • Average observed milling time (automated) = 3.05 min
  • Performance rating of the operator = 95%
  • Personal and fatigue allowance = 15%
  • Cycle time = Manual time + Machine time
  • Operator produced only 36 products in 12 hour shift
  1. What is the standard time for manual tasks?
    1. 3.5 minutes
    2. 5.3 minutes
    3. 9.3 minutes
    4. 14.8 minutes
    5. 16.4 minutes
  2. What is the standard time for automated machining?
    1. 3.05 minutes
    2. 5.30 minutes
    3. 9.30 minutes
    4. 19.45 minutes
    5. 26.14 minutes
  3. What is the standard time for the production cycle?
    1. 3.05 minutes
    2. 5.30 minutes
    3. 9.30 minutes
    4. 19.45 minutes
    5. 26.14 minutes
  4. If the operator produces 36 of such products per 12-hour shift, what is the effective labor time?
    1. 500 minutes
    2. 600 minutes
    3. 700 minutes
    4. 800 minutes
    5. None of the above
  5. If the operator produces 36 of such products per 12-hour shift, what is the efficiency of this operator?
    1. 95.4%
    2. 96.0%
    3. 97.2%
    4. 98.5%
    5. 100%
