The Attaran Corporation manufactures two electrical products: portable air conditioners and portable heaters. The assembly process for each is similar in that both require a certain amount of wiring and drilling. Each air conditioner takes 3 hours of wiring and 2 hours of drilling. Each heater must go through 2 hours of wiring and 1 hour of drilling. During the next production period, 240 hours of wiring time are available and up to 130 hours of drilling time may be used. Each air conditioner sold yields a profit of $20. Each heater assembled may be sold for a $11 profit.

Please do not give solution in image format thanku In 2018, the government of Ghana launched operation one district one factory (IDIE). Based on IDIF, Ekumfi Pineapple Factory Co. Ltd (EPF) was launched. In 2019 the management of ERF started production with 100 workers per shift, each of the three shifts working 8 hours per day. Every working day the payroll cost was GHIC 20,000 and overhead expenses amounted to GHC 5000 and material cost GHC 4000. At the end of the first year, the company produced 1,000,000 boxes of pineapple juice. During the second year, EPF acquired a loan from Exim Bank to purchase a new plant. After the introduction of the new plant, the management reduced the size of its workers per shift to 80, each working 8 hours per day, with the payroll cost reducing to GHC 18,000 and overhead expenses also reducing to GHC 4000 and material cost rising to GHC 6000.

In a large microelectronics plant, the assembly cell for circuit boards has a demand for 250 units an hour. Two feeder cells supply parts A and B to the assembly cell (one A and one B for each board). Standard containers that look like divided trays are used. A container will hold 24 As or 10 Bs. It takes 10 minutes to fill up a container with As and 24 minutes to fill up a container with Bs. Transit time to the assembly cell is 5 minutes for both A and B. No safety factor is used. Set up a kanban control system for the assembly process.
Efua Babyson (not a real name) completed Fashion Design Programme at a Technical University in Takoradi. Efua decided to join a dress-making group to gain experience for her career. In the course of her internship, Efua has observed that there are always a lot of beautiful pieces of leftover clothes that go waste thereby requiring the shop to spend money to dispose them.

VGHC, humanitarian aid service in the Sub-Saharan Africa, operates its laboratory on-site. The lab maintains an inventory of test kits for a variety of procedures. VGHC uses 780 A1C kits each year. Ordering costs are $15 and holding costs are $3 per kit per year. The new price list indicates that orders of fewer than 73 kits will cost $60 per kit, 73 through 144 kits will cost $56 per kit, and orders of more than 144 kits will cost $53 per kit. Determine the optimal order quantity and the total cost.
