Question: In an assembly operation with 3 components whose individual service level to the assembly line is 90%, the overall service assuming no issues in assembly

  1. In an assembly operation with 3 components whose individual service level to the assembly line is 90%, the overall service assuming no issues in assembly itself will be:
    1. 90%
    2. 81%
    3. 72%
  2. The scientific way to reduce cycle time without sacrificing TH is to:
    1. Reduce WIP but not below Critical WIP.
    2. Implement a six sigma program
    3. Implement a lean program
    4. Reduce WIP below Critical WIP.
  3. Assume you are on the marginal case curveif the desired throughput for the operation is a minimum of 450 units and customers need the product in no longer than 3 days, you could deliver these results by:
    1. Reduce WIP to 100 units
    2. Reducing WIP to 1500 units
    3. Increasing WIP to 2800 units
    4. None of the above
