Problem 8-12 (Algo) A firm uses a serial assembly system and needs answers to the following: a. An output of 800 units per shift (8.00 hours) is desired for a new processing system. The system requires product to pass through four stations where the work content at each station is 32 seconds. What is the required cycle time for such a system

Respuesta :

Answer:

the required time is 36 seconds

Explanation:

The computation of the required time is given below:

= Production time available ÷ desired output

= (8 hours × 60 minutes × 60 seconds) ÷ 800 units

= 28,800 ÷ 800

= 36 seconds

hence, the required time is 36 seconds
