Assign tasks to stations for a desired output of 500 units in a 7-hour day to balance the line using the longest operation time heuristic. Break ties with the most following tasks heuristic. Calculate the percentage idle time for the line. Use the actual bottleneck cycle time in your calculation.

I AB, CDD, E, F, HE, B, C
II AA, B, C, ECC, G, HE, B, C
III ABC, F, BD, B, FE, B, F
IV AC, J, H, I, GC, G, H, I, JD, B, FF
