- When a patient enters the Valley Health Clinical Laboratory to have his blood drawn and a Chemistry Panel and CBC run, he spends, on average 2 minutes at patient check-in, 45 minutes in the waiting area, 5 minutes having his medical history updated, and 8 minutes having his blood taken. If the clinical laboratory has 3 full-time Lab Techs, operates 8 hours per day and demand is 75 patients per day, what is the takt time? Assume that the med techs take a 30 minute lunch. Please enter your response using this format: ## minutesA furnace repair team that services an average of four furnaces a day if the design capacity is six furnaces a day and the effective capacity is five furnaces a day.A Chocolate manufacturing company produced 180000 bars last year. The company works 3 shifts per day 8 hours shift and operates 250 days per year. The production line is designed to produce 100 bars per hour. The company allocates 0.5 an hour/day for preventive maintenance, 1 hour/ day for employee breaks, and 1.5 hours/day to set up machines for different products. What is the actual outputs? 30 bars per hour 48 bars per hour 60 bars per hour 100 bars per hour
- An output of 720 units per shift (7.40 hours) is desired for a new processing system. The system requires product to pass through four stations where the work content at each station is 26 seconds. What is the required cycle time for such a system? How efficient is your system with the cycle time calculated? Station 3 changes and now requires 50 seconds to complete. What will need to be done to meet demand (assume only 7.40 hours are available)? What is the efficiency of the new system?Calculate the total number of machine-hours needed to produce enough units to meet the sales demand for the two products. Total number of machine hours Marwick Innovations, Inc. produces exercise and fitness gear. Two of its newer products require a finishing process that can only be completed on machines that were recently purchased for this purpose. The machines have a maximum capacity of 10,500 machine hours, and no other products that the company makes use these machines.Sarah Jacob, the company’s operations manager, is preparing the production schedule for the coming month and can’t seem to find enough machine time to produce enough units to meet the customer demand that the marketing department has included in the sales budget.Michael Stoner, the company’s controller, has gathered the following information about the two products: DumbbellRack WeightBench Selling price per unit $50 $60 Direct materials 20 12 Direct labor…A company that makes a product recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the product. Prior to buying the new equipment, the company used six workers, who produced an average of 90 units per hour. Workers receive P35 per hour and machine cost was P2,000 per hour. With the new equipment, it was possible to transfer one of the workers to another department, and equipment cost increased by P500 per hour while output increased by four units per hour. Compute labor productivity under each system. Use units per worker per hour as the measure of labor productivity.

Because of this, wheat-filled trucks waiting to unload and return to the fields have been known to back up for a block at the receiving bin. The central bin is owned cooperatively, and it is to every farmer's benefit to make the unloading/storage process as efficient as possible. The cost of grain deterioration caused by unloading delays and the cost of truck rental and idle driver time are significant concerns to the cooperative members. Although farmers have difficulty quantifying crop damage, it is easy to assign a waiting and unloading cost for truck and driver of $17 per hour. During the 2-week harvest season, the storage bin is open and operated 16 hours per day, 7 days per week, and can unload 34 trucks per hour according to a negative exponential distribution. Full trucks arrive all day long (during the…
