Calculate the flow time based on information provided below? and show step by step

Calculate the flow time based on information

Results of First Production Run First Production Run Car Body Production Wheel Production Car Assembly Process Time (Sec./Unit) 30 50 10 Capacity (Units/Sec.) 1/30 = .033 1/50 = .02 1/10 = .1 Capacity (Units/Min.) 60/30 = 2 60/50 = 1.2 60/10 = 6 Process Capacity Minimum = 1.2 Units/Min. Bottleneck? No Yes No Flow Rate Minimum = 1.2 Units/ Min. Utilization (F.R./Capacity) 1.2/2 = 60.00% | 1.2/1.2 = 100.00% | 1.2/60 = 20.00% Average Utilization 60.00% Cycle Time 1/1.2 = 60 Sec./Unit Takt Time (60 sec/min)/(35 car/min) = 1.714 Sec/car Flow Time Labor Content 30+50+10 = 90 Sec. Cost of Direct Labor* (90sec/Unit*$20/hr)/3600sec/hr = $.5 / Unit Idle Time (Sec.) 20 Time to Complete N Units in an Empty System 60 Sec. + 60 Sec.*(N - 1) Time to Complete 100 Units in an Empty System 6,000 Seconds = 100 Minutes = 1.67 Hours * Employees are paid an average of $20/ hour
