4 A manager is simulating the number of times a machine operator stops a machine to make adjustments. After careful study the manager found that the number of stops ranged from one to five per cycle and that each number of stops was equally likely. Using the random numbers 0.11 and 0.50 (in that order), determine how many stops for adjustments each of the next two cycles will have. The first cycle will have stops and the second cycle will have stops. Mc Graw Hill < Prev 4 of 5 ASUS

HW1 Q1 Consider the emergency department of a hospital that operates as follows: Upon arrival, patients first wait in line for registration. Then, after registration, patients wait to see a triage nurse who classifies them as either critical or non-critical. After the triage nurse, critical patients go to the emergency care area waiting to be seen by a doctor while non-critical patients go to the routine care area where they wait to see a doctor. It is determined that there are, on average, 20 patients registering or waiting to be registered, 5 patients being seen or waiting to be seen by the triage nurse, 15 critical patients being seen or waiting to be seen by a doctor in the emergency area, and 20 non-critical patients being seen or waiting to be seen by a doctor in the routine care area, Assuming that 20 patients arrive every hour and that 75% of the patients are non-critical, how many minutes does a patient spend on average in the emergency department of the hospital? Average time…
A company makes two products (A and B). Each product requires time on two machines 1 and 2. the specifications for each product are as follows Product A Product B Processing time on machine 1 (hrs/unit) Processing time on machine 2 (hrs/unit) Material and labor cost (Sh./ unit) Selling price (Sh./ unit) Maximum possible sale (units) 2 1 2 14 15 16 18 130 150 The amount of time available on machine 1 is 360 hrs and on machine 2 is 260 hrs. Using simplex method determine the number of product A and B, which should be sold in order to maximize total contribution for the company.

Chapter 5. (M/M/s/K Model). Leia is responsible for 12 dataunits in the IT offices in a small business called DataWish. Each dataunit runs on an average for 3 weeks and requires an average of ½ or 0.5 weeks to get reset by Leia before it can start up again. If we assign the Poisson distribution to the "arrival" of each dataunit for service and an exponential distribution to the actual service provided, answer the following questions: a. The arrival rate would be units per week and the service rate would be units per week. b. Calculate the following operating characteristics for the M/M/S/K system: Utilization Factor (p) % Performance Measures PO (probability that sytem is empty) % L (average units in system) units Lq (average units waiting in queue) units W (average time in the weeks system) Wq (average time in the queue) weeks c. If we assign a cost of waiting as $400 per week per dataunit and $800 per week of hiring Leia, what is the Total Time Cost per week cost of servicing the…
Kay and Micheal Passe publish what's Happening?--a biweekly newspaper to publicize local events. whats happening? has a few subscribers; it typically is sold at checkout stands. Much of the revenue comes from advertisers of garage sales and supermarket specials. In an effort to reduce costs associated with printing too many papers or delivering them to the wrong location, Micheal implemented a computerized system to collect sales data. Sales-counter scanners accurately record sales data for each location. Since the system was implemented, total sales volume has steadily declined. selling advertising space and maintainting shelf space at supermarkets are getting deifficult. Reduced revenue makes controlling costs all the more important. For each issue. Micheal caefully makes a forecast based on sales data collected at each location. Then he orders papers to be printed and distributed in quantities matching the forecast. Micheal's forecast refect a downward trend, which is present in the…

1. A company that makes shopping carts for supermarkets and other stores recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the shopping carts. Prior to buying the new equipment, the company used five workers, who produced an average of 100 carts per hour. Workers receive $20 per hour, and machine cost was $50 per hour. With the new equipment, it was possible to transfer one of the workers to another department, and equipment cost increased by $10 per hour while output increased by four carts per hour. a. Compute labor productivity under each system. Use carts per worker per hour as the measure of labor productivity. b. Compute the multifactor productivity under each system. Use carts per dollar cost (labor plus equipment) as the measure. Comment on the changes in productivity according to the two measures, and on which one you believe is the more pertinent for this situation. C.

Assume that during minute t (the current minute isminute 1), the following sequence of events occurs: (1) Atthe beginning of the minute, xt customers arrive at the cashregister; (2) the store manager decides how many cashregisters should be operated during the current minute;(3) if s cash registers are operated and i customers arepresent (including the current minute’s arrivals), c(s, i)customers complete service; and (4) the next minute begins.A cost of 10¢ is assessed for each minute a customerspends waiting to check out (this time includes checkouttime). Assume that it costs c(s) cents to operate s cashregisters for 1 minute. Formulate a dynamic programmingrecursion that minimizes the sum of holding and servicecosts during the next 60 minutes. Assume that before thefirst minute’s arrivals, no customers are present and thatholding cost is assessed at the end of each minute.
