  1. Suppose the cost per operator-hour is $15 and the cost per machine- hour is $28. Determine the cost per unit produced by the number of machine assignment for each operation, and then select the best choice of the number of machines assigned to an operator.
  2. Using part (c) and the information given in the table below. Calculate the minimum space in sqft required for a department containing all the above machines. Assume an aisle allowance of 15% of the total area of the department.

Problem (1): Steel making manufacturer produces two types of parts P1 and P2 to meet the daily demand of 20,000 units. The process flow chart is provided below where Rl and R2 represent rework operations. In assembly station (MG), 2 units of P1 and 3 units of P2 are required to assemble one final unit. The defect rates for MI, M2, M3, and M4 are given as 3%, 2.5%, 4%, and 2%, respectively. The reworking defect rates for Ri and R2 are assumed to be random variables and normally distributed with d (10%, 0.3) and d 2 (15%, 0.45). a What are the requirements for the both parts to meet the daily demand for the completed product?
