Part $1$

Consider the assembly line below. The three fabrication operations run in$$ parallel, such that each batch of $20$ units only needs to go through one of the three fabrication operations. After$$ that, each batch needs to go through both assembly$$ operations, which occur simultaneously$($specifically$,10$ components are made for each unit in the fabrication stagelong dashsome components are then assembled in the Assembly $1$ area while others are assembled in the Assembly $2$ area$).$ The units are packaged and made ready for shipment in the final stage.

What is the throughput time per batch of this$$ operation?
