What is the capacity of the baking process batches per hour step (in batches per hour)? a. What is the bottleneck of the manufacturing b. process? Assuming unlimited demand, what is the c. process flow rate (in batches per hour)? batches per hour Assuming unlimited demand, what is the d. utilization of the mixing process step? percent e. If demand is 2 per hour, what is the utilization of the baking step? percent f. If demand is 2 per hour, what is the cycle time (minutes) of the process? minutes If the manufacturing process is currently full of work-in-process inventory, how long would e. it take to complete 30 batches of cookies?
