Consider a slot machine at a casino in Las Vegas that offers a payout ratio of 90%, that is, the casino returns 90 cents back to the player out of every $1 played. The slot machine is designed for a player to play one round every 10 seconds, and you play $1 each time. How much time would it take for a customer to lose $100?

a. 5 5/8 hr

b. 3 4/9 hr

c. 2 7/9 hr

d. 4 3/8 hr

Refer back to the slot machine question above. Let's say that the payout ratio is 80% now. There is no other change. Will the time for the customer to lose $100:

a.Be the Same

b. Decrease

c. Increase

d. Cannot answer

d.Both are bottlenecks

In the Bread Making example with two Ovens, the bottleneck stage is:

a.Bread-Making

b.Packaging

c.There is no bottleneck
