Assume machines operate 10 hours a day, 250 days a year. If we select machine A, how many machine A do we need? (Use common sense to decide the answer.)A manager must decide how many machines of a certain type to purchase. Each machine can process 100 customers per day. One machine will result in a fixed cost of $2,000 per day, while two machines will result in a fixed cost of $3,800 per day. Variable costs will be $20 per customer, and revenue will be $45 per customer.a. Determine the break-even point for each range.b. If estimated demand is 90 to 120 customers per day, how many machines should be purchased?

An airline company must plan its fleet capacity and long-term schedule of aircraft usage. For oneflight segment, the average number of customers per day is 70, which represents a 65 percentageutilization rate of the equipment assigned to the flight segment. If demand is expected toincrease to 84 customers for this flight segment in three years, and management requires acapacity cushion of 25 percent, calculate the following:-i. the planned capacity requirement.ii. the maximum number of customers the flight segment can accommodate.iii. the efficiency rate of the flight segment assuming that the current effective capacity of theflight segment is 93 customers.A manager must decide which type of machine to buy, A, B, or C. Machines costs are as follows: Machine Cost A $40,000 B $30,000 C $80,000 Product forecast, processing times on the machines, and setup times are as follows: Processing Time Per Unit (minutes) Product Annual Demand A B C Setup Times (minutes) Production Lots (units) 1 16,000 3 4 2 20 200 2 12,000 4 5 3 35 100 3 6,000 5 6 3 60 50 4 30,000 2 4 1 15 500 Machines operate 10 hours a day, 250 days a year.

- The following diagram shows a 4-step process that begins with Operation 1 and ends with Operation 4. The rates shown in each box represent the effective capacity of that operation.a. Determine the capacity of this process. b. Which action would yield the greatest increase in process capacity: (1) increase the capacity of Operation 1 by 15 percent; (2) increase the capacity of Operation 2 by 15 percent; or (3) increase the capacity of Operation 3 by 15 percent?n the bakery, we have established that design capacity is 30 pies per day and effective capacity is 20 pies per day. Currently, the bakery is producing 27 pies per day. What is the bakery’s capacity utilization relative to effective capacity?Based on the data from the below table: b. What is the system capacity in the total number of car arrivals per hour? Which resource(s) is (are) the bottleneck(s)?
