  1. The snapback timing method was used to obtain average times for work elements in one work cycle. The times are given in the table below. Element d is a machinecontrolled element and the time is constant. Elements a, b, c, e, and f are operatorcontrolled and were performance rated at 85%; however, elements e and f are performed during the machinecontrolled element d. The machine allowance is zero (no extra time is added to the machine cycle), and the PFD allowance is 14%. Determine (a) the normal time for the cycle and (b) the standard time for the cycle.
