12. If 12,500 units are produced, what is the total amount of manufacturing overhead cost incurred to support this level of production? What is the total amount expressed on a per unit basis?

and what metrics can be provided in determining the correct number of workstations. My recommendation to

The production-line approach allows companies, such as fast-food restaurants, to use a workstation approach and/or an

c) Estimated 600 additional direct workers and 200-240 additional indirect workers would be required for factory production.

Each doctor, nurse and member of the staff will have access to their own workstation, a Dell Vostro 260 Slim. These desktops will come with their own twenty-four inch wide monitor and one year of Dell ProSupport all at a cost of $654 for each. Each of the five buildings was specified to have 10 workstations; however each building will have fifteen workstations instead. This way there will be spare systems in case of any potential growth to take place in any of the offices. The spares can also be used as a replacement workstation

In the calculation it can be said that they only 7 stations are needed. With this number of workstations one could achieve the highest efficiency at this moment. But the company will grow rapidly. Therefore they had to add new stations every year.

The U.S. Constitution holds an immense amount of power over ones life for only having 7,900 words. The Constitution is a basic guideline of how the United States Government should work and operate. It also gives you all of your daily rights! To me, the Constitution means what being an American is, and how I am lucky to be granted so many rights, and have these rights protected. The preamble, in just 52 words sums up the whole constitution.

In, 8 hours a day, the company can produce 60 * 8 * (1/0.5) = 960 shirts, which is the current production capacity. But it needs to produce only 800 shirts.

Manufacturing Cells production is organized in groupings of all the different types of equipment used to make a given product. Materials move from one machine to another, and various operations are performed in sequence, minimizing materials-handling costs. Workers are also hired and trained to multitasked performing a variety of activities. Defects in the process are aggressively eliminated; this is due to the tight links in between workstations. Setup time is another aspect of U.S. Strollers that can be reduced using manufacturing cells concept. The production of a product, its cycle time until it's completed is reduced significantly. Reducing setup time and costs make production in smaller batches economical, which in turn reduces inventory levels

systems which help to make the product both more durable as well as helping to reduce manufacturing costs

The Ford Production System (FPS) would utilize a pull-based production process that synchronizes production and ensures flow and stability throughout the production process. Ordered assembly drives costs down by providing Ford and its suppliers when and where supplies are needed. This also reduces overstocking of supplies.

The system allows to company to modernize its strategies and processing more efficiently than its competitors

We analyzed a Toshiba assembly line plan for a new subnotebook computer.  The engineering section manager, Toshihiro Nakamura, wants to make changes to the line process as designed by the engineers.  The basic assembly line equipment and space already exist within the Toshiba plant, so the subnotebook assembly process must conform to those preexisting constraints.  Specifically, the assembly line is a straight 14.4-meter conveyor system that can accommodate 8 to 12 workers plus one supporter to aid in the assembly process.  The employees work at assembling for 7.5 hours a day.  The computers are assembled from

William Shakespeare's Macbeth is a play that was written in the 17th century which deals with the ambition, tragedy, social status and desire which still appeal to a modern day audience. The theme of Macbeth is the struggle for power and how ambition can go unchecked by your morals. Macbeth holds responsibility for his own downfall and the decisions that led him there. However, outside influences like the three witches and Lady Macbeth are also to blame, but ultimately Macbeth's downfall was caused by his weakness to be easily influenced. Macbeth in the beginning seems to be a very honorable and loyal person, but things take an unexpected turn when he is easily persuaded by the three witches
