Chrome Surface Coating has calculated a maximum cycle time of 31 seconds which dictates they require three work stations on their assembly line. Here is the information available about the tasks, predecessors, and task times.

Tasks	Predecessors	Time (seconds)
A		12
B	A	2
C	B	20
D	B	15
E	C	10
F	D	15
G	E & F	12

Your job is to design the assembly line and answer the following questions.

a) Explain which tasks should be done at EACH work station. For each work station, state the tasks in the SEQUENCE that they will be performed at that work station.

b) How much total work time is being done at EACH work station based on your solution?

c) What is the actual cycle time of your assembly line?

d) What is the percentage idle time on your assembly line?

e) How many 8-hour shifts would be needed to complete 6000 units of production on your assembly line? (Keep 1 decimal place in your answer.)
