A company produces 3 products A, B and C processed on 3 machines P, Q, R before completion. Machine P can process 25 units of A or 50 unit of B or 75 units of C per hour. Machine Q can process 50 units of any of the products per hour. Machine R can process 50 units of A or 25 unit of B or 100 units of C per hour. The processing hours available on machines P, Q and R are 12, 12 and 13 respectively. Use matrix method, find (i) How many units of each of the three products can be produced per day (ii) The production cost per unit, if cost per hour of operating machines A,B and C are N$500, N$1,000 and N$1,500 respectively. (iii) The total cost of production

A company makes two products (A and B). Each product requires time on two machines 1 and 2. the specifications for each product are as follows Product A Product B Processing time on machine 1 (hrs/unit) Processing time on machine 2 (hrs/unit) Material and labor cost (Sh./ unit) Selling price (Sh./ unit) Maximum possible sale (units) 2 1 2 14 15 16 18 130 150 The amount of time available on machine 1 is 360 hrs and on machine 2 is 260 hrs. Using simplex method determine the number of product A and B, which should be sold in order to maximize total contribution for the company.
A company that operated 10 hours a day manufactures two products on three sequential processes. The following table summarizes the data for the problem: Which of the following is the most appropriate representation for variables x and y for the given situation? a.) x is the # of units of Product 1 to be procured; y is the # of units of Product 2 to be procured. b.) x is the # of units of Product 1 to be produced; y is the # of units of Product 2 to be produced. c.) x is the # of units of Product 1 to be stored; y is the # of units of Product 2 to be stored d.) x is the # of units of Product 1 to be delivered; y is the # of units of Product 2 to be delivered.
A retail store sold in the month of April 5,000 products that produced $45,000 in sales. In the month of May the company sold 6,000 products. The store workforce consists of four full-time workers who work 40-hour week. In April the store also had seven part-time workers at 10 hours per week, and in May the store had nine part-timers at 15 hours per week (assume four weeks in each month). Using sales dollars as the measure of output (assume the price of the product was the same for both months), what is the percentage change in labor productivity from April to May? Answer: 2.
Before completing production, a product must passthrough three stages of production. On the average, a newproduct begins at stage 1 every 6 minutes. The average timeit takes to process the product at each stage is as follows:stage 1, 3 minutes; stage 2, 2 minutes; stage 3, 1 minute.After finishing at stage 3, the product is inspected (assumethis takes no time). Ten percent of the final products arefound to have a defective part and must return to stage 1 andgo through the entire system again. After completing stage3, 20% of the final products are found to be defective. Theymust return to stage 2 and pass through 2 and 3 again. Onthe average, how many jobs are in the system? Assume thatall interarrival times and service times are exponential andthat each stage consists of a single server.
1) An operator is used for loading and unloading of parts to automated machines. Loading time is 1 minute; unloading time is 2 minutes, machining time is 30 minutes, Operator travel time between the machines including the inspection time is 4 minutes. Cost of operator is C₁=40 TL/Hour, cost of a machine is C₂-200 TL/Hour. What is the cost per unit of production if optimum number of machines is assigned to the operator? (Note: Times are given in minutes and costs are per hour) a) 231 TL/unit b) 6930 TL/unit c) 115.5 TL/unit d) 240 TL/unit e) 132 TL/unit 2) An operator is used for loading and unloading of parts to automated machines.

A company produces motor cycle seats. The company has two production lines. The production rate for line one is 50 seats per hour and for line two it is 60 seats per hour. The company has entered into a contract to supply1200 seats daily to another company. Currently, the normal operation period for each line is 8 hours. The production manager 4 | P a g eof the company is trying to determine the best daily operation hours for the two lines. He sets the priorities to achieve his goals as given below:- P1: produce and deliver 1200 seats daily- P2: limit the daily overtime operation hours of line one to 3 hours- P3: Limit the daily overtime operation hours of line two to 4 hours Formulate the problem as a GP model and then solve it by using graphical method
A diabetic patient needs at least 40 units of Vit. A, at least 30 units of Vit. C, and at least 40 units 30 units of Vit. E each day. Each brand X multivitamin capsule contains 4 units of Vit. A, 6 units of Vit. C, and 2 units of Vit. E; each brand Y capsule contains 5 units of Vit. A, 3 units of Vit.C, and 5 units of Vit. E. If each brand X capsule costs P6.00 and each brand Y capsule costs P9.00, how many capsules should the patient take each day to minimize the costs?
A manufacturing plant produces a product 'A' that requires one unit of 'B' and ½ unit of 'C'. Each unit of 'B' is comprised of one unit of 'D', two units of 'E', and one unit of 'F'. Each unit of 'C' requires ½ unit of 'G' and three units of 'H'. The manufacturing lead times for the components are as follows: 'A' - two weeks, 'B' - one week, 'C' - two weeks, 'D' - two weeks, 'E' - three weeks, 'F' - one week, 'G' - two weeks, 'H' - one week. There are 20 units in stock for each of these components. 100 units of 'A' are needed for delivery in seven weeks: a) Develop the product structure and indexed bill of materials for the product. b) Create a gross and net requirements plan for the manufacturer of the product.
The number of ‘lines’ on an order is defined to be the number of unique products on that order. An operation has an average lines per order of 2.8. 60% of those orders are single line orders. What is the average lines per order for the set of multi-line orders?
During an eight-hour shift, 750 non-defective parts are desired as a result of a manufacturing operation. The default operation time is 15 minutes. As the operators of machine are inexperienced, the actual time they take to perform the operation is 20 minutes, and, on average, a fifth of the parts that start to be manufactured are lost. Assuming that each one of the machines used in this operation will not be available for one hour in each shift, determine the number of machines needed.
Design capacity is the ability of the company to produce the quantity of goods and services within a particular period of time when the company have best condition to produce and when the company have unlimited resources. These resource's includes- Men, Machinery, Material etc. It shows the maximum capacity of the company to produce. Effective capacity refers to the ability of the company to produce maximum quantity within a particular period of time to achieve in current production condition and current resources. It shows the real outcome capacity of the firm when the company produce within their own current condition of their production. Question Why is the capacity design important?
