The daily demand for parts from a machining workcell JMB to an assembly workcell is 1,600 units. The average processing time is 25 seconds per unit. A container spends, on average, 6 hours waiting at JMB before it is processed. Each container holds 250 parts. Currently 10 containers are being used for the part.

What percent safety margin of stock is being carried?

If you wanted to retain the safety margin, but remove one container, to what value must the waiting time be reduced?

What would happen if the demand for the parts increased to 1,900 with K = 10?

Daily demand for parts = 1600 units

Avg processing time = 25 seconds.

Capacity of a container = 250 units

Waiting time of a container before the JMB = 6 hours

Number of containters currently deployed = 10

Solution:

Total number of parts carried by the containter = 10 x 250 = 2500 parts.

Total numbers carried in excess as safety stock = 2500-1600 = 900

Percentage of safety stock = (900/1600) x 100 = 56.25%

If one container is removed total parts carried = 2250 units

Processing time at machine for 250 parts after loading in JMB = 250 x 25 seconds = 1.736 hours, but it has to wait for another 4.26 hours for the next container to be loaded because of the waiting time of the containter is 6 hours.

Processing time at machine for 1600 parts = 1600 x 25 seconds = 11.11 hours

Number of containers required for 1600 parts = 1600/250= 6.4 ~ 7 containters

Waiting time of 7 containers = 7 x 4.26 = 29.82 hours.

If one of the containers has to be removed 1600 parts has to be carried in 6 containers ie., 29.82hours - 6 hours = 23.82hours

Waiting time per container before loading = 23.82/6 = 3.97 hours.

Reduced Total waiting time of the container = 3.97 hours + the processing time of 250 parts = 3.97 + 1.736 =5.7hours ~ 5 hours and 42 minutes

the most important factor in the

work process or industry is to retain the interest of the employee. and to

retain them, their salary or profit must be adjusted to the best value. unless

the employee does not do his job properly, employees must receive bonuses or

benefits to ensure them to stay in the company. it will actually make them stay

longer, make them feel important and reduce costs for hiring new employees.

mark brainliest!

1   all nations face the problem of scarcity because there are limited resources and unlimited wants. nations do not have enough factors of production to produce everything that their population wants. entrepreneurial resources initiate businesses to make new goods and services; labor resources produce goods and services.

2 there are four factors of production: natural resources, labor resources, capital resources, and entrepreneurial resources. natural resources are raw materials from nature that are used to produce goods. trees, water, and grains are natural resources. some natural resources, such as wheat and cattle, are renewable

3 wants

things that you do not need to have in order to survive, but would like to have

needs

things that you must have in order to survive

goods

physical products

services

tasks that a business perform for customers

resources

items that people can use to make or obtain what they need or want

determine

to settle or decide by choice of alternatives or possiblities
