The manager of a car wash must decide whether to have one or two wash lines. One line will mean a fixed cost of $6,000 a month, and two lines will mean a fixed cost of $10,500 a month. Each line would be able to process 15 cars an hour. Variable costs will be $3 per car, and revenue will be $5.95 per car. The manager projects an average demand of between 14 and 18 cars anhour. Would you recommend one or two lines? The car wash is open 300 hours a month.
Thomas Pang Furniture produced 70,000 Executive chairs per week. The effective capacity is 71,000 chairs. The production line operates 5 days per week with two 6-hour shifts per day. The line was designed to process the Executive chairs at the rate of 1,200 per hour. Determine the design capacity, utilization and efficiency for this plant when producing the Executive chair. Thomas Pang Furniture now needs to increase production of the Executive chairs. A second production line will be added. Effective capacity on this second line is the same as the first line at 71,000 Executive chairs. The first line is operating at a higher efficiency but output on the second line will be no more than 75% because the crew will be primarily new hires. Determine the expected output of this second line.

er A product line includes 8 different product styles, each consisting of 93 components. Assume that 9 processing operations are needed to produce each component on average with each operation taking an average 1.2 min, which includes setup time and part handling time. All operations need a production machine, and currently 25 machines are dedicated to this task. The plant operates 52 hours per week, 52 weeks a year. Determine the yearly production of each style in units (round downward). 63 504

A single model manual assembly line produces a product whose work content time = 47.8 min. The line has 24 workstations with a manning level =1.25. Available shift time per day = 8 hr, but downtime during the shift reduces actual production time to 7.6 hr on average. This results in an average daily production of 256 units/day. Repositioning time per worker is 8% of cycle time. Determine (a) line efficiency, (b) balancing efficiency,and (c) repositioning time.
