- 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.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.There are two companies manufacturing drones. Company A manufactures mass market drones, while company B manufactures customised drones according to customers’ requirements. In 2020, company A produces 3,200 drones, 3% of which were found to be defective and cannot pass the quality check. Company A employs 5 workers working an average of 8 hours a day in the drone production, and they worked 200 working days in 2020.In contrast, company B produces 900 drones, 10% of which were found to be defective and cannot pass the quality check. Company B employs 3 workers working an average of 6 hours a day in the drone production, and they worked 170 days in 2020. (a) If the drone manufacturing is seen as a process, what is considered as the output of the production processes of companies A and B and why? (b) Measure the single-factor manpower productivity for the two companies. (c) Is it reasonable to compare the manpower productivity of the two companies and reach a conclusion that one company…
- In an oil company, its south refinery produces per day 300 barrels of high grade oil, 200 barrels of medium grade oil and 150 barrels of low grade oil. The cost of operation of this refinery amounts to P 600,000 per day. The north refinery of the company produces each day 100 barrels of high grade oil and 100 barrels of medium-grade oil and 150 of low-grade oil. Which has a total of P500,000 operational costs. If the company’s production requirement is at least 900 barrels for high-grade oil, 800 barrels for medium-grade oil, and 750 for low-grade oil, how many days, are required for each refinery to operate to obtain the minimum cost?Roedel Electronics produces tablet computer accessories, including integrated keyboard tablet stands that connect a keyboard to a tablet device and holds the device at a preferred angle for easy viewing and typing. Roedel produces two sizes of integrated keyboard tablet stands, small and large. Each size uses the same keyboard attachment, but the stand consists of two different pieces, a top flap and a vertical stand that differ by size. Thus, a completed integrated keyboard tablet stand consists of three subassemblies that are manufactured by Roedel: a keyboard, a top flap, and a vertical stand. Roedel's sales forecast indicates that 7,000 small integrated keyboard tablet stands and 5,000 large integrated keyboard tablet stands will be needed to satisfy demand during the upcoming Christmas season. Because only 500 hours of in-house manufacturing time are available, Roedel is considering purchasing some, or all, of the subassemblies from outside suppliers.

- Kofi Abebrese runs a small industrial company that specialize in the production of high standard windows for housing estates. A worker is paid GHC0.9 per hour and can produce two window with an hour. Each window uses a frame costing GHC1 and incur a variable overheads of GHC0.7. Each window sells for GH¢3. Currently, due to the economic condition, work is rather slack and three employees are occupied in carrying out extensive repairs to Kofi Abebrese's own house. Kofi owns a warehouse next to the factory, which had been used as a factory store, in the past. It is now let out on a renewable annual lease of GHC600. A new building company, Allied Consult, which specializes in the production of prefabricated houses has asked Kofi if he would be interested in accepting a contract for GHC30,000 which will be for a year initially, to produced molded internal building sections. Kofi estimates that, the contract will take 13,200 hours of works, or the work of five men for a year, and that…A young computer engineer has $12,000 to invest and three different investment options (funds) to choose from. Type 1 guaranteed investment funds offer an expected rate of return of 7%, Type 2 mixed funds (part is guaranteed capital) have an expected rate of return of 8%, while an investment on the Stock Exchange involves an expected rate of return of 12%, but without guaranteed investment capital. Computer engineer has decided not to invest more than $2,000 on the Stock Exchange in order to minimize the risk. Moreover for tax reasons, she needs to invest at least three times more in guaranteed investment funds than in mixed funds. Assume that at the end of the year the returns are those expected; she is trying to determine the optimum investment amounts. (a) Express this problem as a linear programming model with two decision variables.(b) Solve the problem with the graphical solution procedure and define the optimum solution.Roedel Electronics produces tablet computer accessories, including integrated keyboard tablet stands that connect a keyboard to a tablet device and hold the device at a preferred angle for easy viewing and typing.
