Charles Lackey operates a bakery in Idaho Falls, Idaho. Because of its excellent product and excellent location, demand has increased by 5555% in the last year. On far too many occasions, customers have not been able to purchase the bread of their choice. Because of the size of the store, no new ovens can be added. At a staff meeting, one employee suggested ways to load the ovens differently so that more loaves of bread can be baked at one time. This new process will require that the ovens be loaded by hand, requiring additional manpower. This is the only production change that will be made in order to meet the increased demand. The bakery currently makes 1,800 loaves per month. Employees are paid $8 per hour. In addition to the labor cost, Charles also has a constant utility cost per month of $800 and a per loaf ingredient cost of $0.35 Current multifactor productivity for 640 work hours per month =0.27loaves/dollar (round your response to three decimal places).

1. A 32,000-seat baseball stadium is used 17 times for games, concerts, and graduation ceremonies. Each event averages five hours and assumes the stadium is full for each event. The stadium is available 365 days a year from 7 am to midnight. (Notice: the focus is stadium “seat” utilization). a. What is stadium (seat) utilization using Equation 7.1 (pg 146)? (Show your calculations) b. If in the above scenario, the utilization was 75% during the 17 events, but there were 2 additional events that garnered 100% utilization, would this be an increase or decrease in overall utilization from the result in “a”? (Show calculations) c. As an Operations Manager how would you improve utilization at the stadium? Provide at least three optional improvement plans with details. EQUATION 7.1 is : UTILIZATION (U) = Resources used / resources avaliable EQUATION 7.2 is: UTILIZATION (U) = Demand Rate / [Service Rate * Number of Servers]
