Use this problem below to check your work. The answer to the second picture is given in it.

All but the last station of a 9-station rotary-indexing machine perform machining operations and the last station is used for unloading and loading parts. The longest process time is 2.3min and the loading/unloading time is less than this. It takes 7.3sec. to index the machine between workstations. Stations break down with a frequency of 0.018 , which is considered equal for all stations. When breakdowns occur, it takes an average of 5.1min to diagnose the problem and make repairs. The starting work part costs $3.5 per unit. Operating cost of the indexing machine is $93/hr, and tooling cost is $0.24 per piece. Determine the completed part cost (to 2 decimal points). All but the last station of a 7-station rotary-indexing machine perform machining operations and the last station is used for unloading and loading parts. The longest process time is 2.6min and the loading/unloading time is less than this. It takes 8.7sec. to index the machine between workstations. Stations break down with a frequency of 0.05 , which is considered equal for all stations. When breakdowns occur, it takes an average of 5.7min to diagnose the problem and make repairs. The starting work part costs $3.18 per unit. Operating cost of the indexing machine is $81/hr, and tooling cost is $0.24 per piece. Determine the completed part cost (to 2 decimal points)
