19-33 Waiting times, manufacturing cycle times. The IVplast Corporation uses an injection molding ma- chine to make a plastic product, Z39, after receiving firm orders from its customers. IVplast estimates that it will receive 40 orders for Z39 during the coming year. Each order of Z39 will take 120 hours of machine time. The annual machine capacity is 6,800 hours. 1. Calculate (a) the average amount of time that an order for Z39 will wait in line before it is processed and (b) the average manufacturing cycle time per order for Z39.
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 6 workers, who together produced an average of 80 carts per hour. Workers receive $18 per hour, and machine cost was $40 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 5 carts per hour. Comment on the changes in productivity according to the two measures. (Round your intermediate calculations to 3 decimal places and final answers to 2 decimal places.) Labor Productivity increased by ____% Multifactor productivity increased by ___%

Consider the order delivery system of Heartha Hardware and Construction Supplies:- Customers (whether by bulk or retail) would line up in a counter where sales representatives will entertain them. It would take about 15 minutes before a customer will be entertained due to the number of customers being served by the sales representative and only about 4 sales representatives are on duty every day.- The sales representative will take down the customer’s order in the order slip with corresponding prices. On some cases, she will ask the person in-charge in the warehouse if the items are available. She then forwards the order slip to the cashier.- The cashier would sum-up again manually the order slip from the sales representative to check the accuracy of the footing of the totals as well as the prices indicated. This would take about 10 minutes, depending on the bulk of the order being placed.- The official receipt will be printed and will be given to the…

18. All airplane passengers at the Lake City Regional Airport must pass through a security screening area before proceeding to the boarding area. The airport has three screening sta- tions available, and the facility manager must decide how many to have open at any par- ticular time. The service rate for processing passengers at each screening station is 3 passengers per minute. On Monday morning the arrival rate is 5.4 passengers per minute. Problems 535 Assume that processing times at each screening station follow an exponential distribution and that arrivals follow a Poisson distribution. a. Suppose two of the three screening stations are open on Monday morning. Compute the operating characteristics for the screening facility. b. Because of space considerations, the facility manager's goal is to limit the average number of passengers waiting in line to 10 or fewer. Will the two-screening-station system be able to meet the manager's goal? C. What is the average time required for a…

.A team of 10 unloaders is employed in good reception bay of a large warehouse. During an 8 hour day 40 lorries arrive and it takes the team 10 minutes to unload each lorry. Each team member is paid RM3 per hour and it costs RM10 per hour to keep lorries waiting. Studies show that increasing the team to 14 men would reduce the unloading time to 7 minutes. Would it be worthwhile increasing the team to 14?
