Consider a process consisting of...

Consider a process consisting of three resources. Assume there exists unlimited demand for the product, and that all activities are always performed in the following sequence.

Resource 1 has a processing time of 5 minutes per unit.

Resource 2 has a processing time of 2 minutes per unit.

Resource 3 has a processing time of 4 minutes per unit.

All three resources are staffed by one worker and each worker gets paid $13 per hour.

Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

a. What is the cost of direct labor? per unit

Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to nearest whole number.

b. What is the labor content? minutes per unit

Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

d. Assume the demand rate is 24 units per hour. What is the takt time? minutes per unit

Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 2 decimal places.

e. Assume the demand rate is 24 units per hour. What is the target manpower? employees

Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 1 decimal place.

f. If one additional worker could be hired, to which resource should the

additional resources be assigned? Calculate the process capacity. units per hour

Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 1 decimal place.

g. If they could take 1 minute of task time from one resource and give it to another

resource (so the labor content remains the same), What would be the new capacity of the process

(units per hour)? Assume that there is still only 1 worker per station. units per hour

Do not round your intermediate calculations. Round your answer to 1 decimal place.

h. What would be the capacity of the process if they integrated the work so that all workers do all three tasks

(units per hour)? Assume that there is still only 1 worker per station. units per hour
