ONLINE Lab Exercise N PART 1: Queuing The local coffee shop has 2 employees, one takes the orders and then takes payment, and the other worker makes the collee drinks. While scme folks ask for a simple cup of colfee that just needs to be poured, others ask for more elaborate coffee drinks, and others order multiple drinks. On average, though, it takes a total of 1min and 15 seconds to process a customer, take the order, make the payment, and make the drink(s). During the busiest time of the day, 7:30 am to 9.30am, about 39.5 customers come in per hour: 1. (2 POINTS) Since the two workers cnly service one customer at a time, they are in fact working like a single worker. What percentage of the time is this single team of workers busy? 2. (2 POINTS) What is the average time a customer waits before they place an order? (In minutes) 3. (2 POINTS) What is the average number of customers in the line? 4. (3 POINTS) Your company used to employ 1 computer tectinician, Olivia, at a cost of $20 hour who could fix 2.9 computer problems per hour. Olivia retired. - A new computer technician, Layla, has been hired at a cost of $29 per houf, but she can fix 3.6 computer problems per hour. - Call center cperators utilize computers. They are paid an average of $17 per hour. When their computers are broken, these operators are unable to work. On average, 2.1 computer problems are reported every hour. - Your company pays both the technician and the operators. Operators with broken computers are paid, but they are not productive. While Layla gets paid significantly more per hour than Olivia, she is reducing the overall cost of this system. How much money is being saved per hour by utilxing the new technician, Layla?

For each set of parties listed you'll also see a loss of defect rate asscciated with that portion of the supply chain. A. Suppliers 0.4% of all materials delivered are unacceptable for use B. Manufacturing 0.7% of all kitchen sets produced defective and are thus not shipped C. Distribution 1.1% of all items shipped are either lost, stolen, or damaged in transil D. Retail Store 1.2% of all the items that are accepted by the retail store are either stolen or darnaged in the store, and are thus unavalable for sale. 5. (2 POINTS) Using the calculation for damage and defects discussed in lecture, calculate the number of standardized sets that must be planned for in order to have 7,500 sets available to the customer each month. 6. (2 POINTS) Based on our estimates, how many extra kitchen sets will need to be purchasediproduced to account for the damage, theft, defects...over the course of a YEAR? 7. (2 POINTS) The kitchen sets sell $275.00 per set. They cost about $200 to produce, deliver, and sell, though. Approximately how much will the company lose (cost) this year based an the estimates and your calculations? PART 3: Square Root Rule A company presently has 4 warehouses. Each carries 4,000 units of inventory, which meets demand at a 2.5% stockout rate. 8. (2 POINTS) If the company decides to downsize and keep only 3 warehouses, haw marry units of inventory will the company need to carry at each of the three warehouses? Assume they will continue to pursue a 2.5% stockout rate. 9. (2 POINTS) If the company decides to increase the number of warehouses to 5 , how many units of inventory will the company need to carry at each of the five warehouses? Assume they will continue to pursue a 2.5% stockout rate.

European car company is trying to decide if they shoukd manufacture their vehicles for the US market in Europe, or in the United Stales. Please do the calculations that will help this company come to a decision. Sale price of vehicle in the United States - $36,000 Cost to manufacture the car in Eurepe - 20,000 Euros Cost to import the vehicle inte the United States $4,500 Cost to manufacture the vehicles in the United SAates - 528,500 10. (3 POINTS) Suppose the exchange rate is near 1 Euro =51.30. What woukd be the profi for the European car company (in Euros) if they manufactured their car in Europe? Remember, they have to pay the import tax. 11. (3 POINTS) Suppose the exchange rate is near 1 Euro =$1.30. What weuld be the profit for the European car company (in Euros) if they manufactured their car in the Uniled States? Remember, they avoid the impert tax
