What cycle time would match capacity and demand if demand is 161 units a day, there are 2 shift(s) of 446 minutes each, and workers are given three 35 minute breaks during each shift, one of which is for lunch or dinner?

Respuesta :

Answer:

4.23 minutes per cycle

Explanation:

The computation of the cycle time is as follows:

But before that following calculations need to be done

Net time per shift is

= Total time - Break time

= 446 - (3 × 35)

= 341 mins

Now  

Total time = Net time × number of shifts

= 341 × 2

= 682 mins

And,  

Demand = 161 units

Now finally

Cycle time = Total time ÷ Daily demand

= 682 ÷ 161

= 4.23 minutes per cycle
