Answer C only. Tim Woods, a recent GMU MBA grad and serial entrepreneur, has opened Pets-R-awesOMe, an online pet store. He and his team are experimenting with call center staffing. A. The current call center format has two lines: one for customers who want to place an order and one for customers who want to report a problem. Each line is served by one specialized customer service representative. The call center is staffed so that at any given time, there is one representative taking customer orders and one representative addressing customer problems. On average, there is a new customer who wants to place an order every two minutes, exponentially distributed. Similarly, there is a new customer needing to address a problem every two minutes, exponentially distributed. The call center staffers are fast and can on average complete one call of either type in 75 seconds, with a standard deviation of 30 seconds. Each call center staff member is paid $15 per hour. The estimated cost of a…

Short question 4- Leo manages a receiving station for rice. Farmers deliver their loads of rice with a rate of 150 tons per hour from 6:00 am to 2:00 pm. Leo can process them at a rate of 100 tons an hour. The station has room to hold only 200 tons of rice in inventory prior to processing. Once this space is filled, the farmers’ trucks must wait to dump their contents. Leo is considering using seasonal workers to help him with the processing of rice loads. When the seasonal workers are working, the processing rate increases to 125 tons per hour. The seasonal workers would start working at 10:00 am and finish working when the trucks stop waiting. At what time, Leo will finish processing loads of rice using these seasonal workers?

state whether or not each situation would be considered “compensable time” (and why or why not). An employee of a fast food chain has to arrive at work 15 minutes early to change into the“mascot” costume and it typically takes another 15 minutes at the end of the shift to change outof the costume and properly store it. Due to the cost of the costume, employees are notallowed to take the costume home. The “mascots” typically work from 10am – 2pm, to coverthe lunch rush periods. How much time would be “compensable” for the mascots, assumingthe conditions/schedule listed above?2) George is a Radiology Technician at a local hospital and when on call, is required to be nofurther than 30 minutes away from the facility. Is the “on call” time, compensable?

So how to calculate the following below: Avg. lateness = ? days Avg. completion time = ?? days Avg. number of jobs in the system = ? jobs

Which job sequence would be used if ordered using the rule "Shortest Job First"?   Group of answer choices a. 1,2,3,4 b. 4,3,1,2 c. 2,1,3,4 d. 2,3,4,1 e. 2,3,1,4

A kanban card is used to signal that: Select one: a. A machine has broken down. b. Work is needed from the preceding station. c. Work is ready to be moved to the next d. A worker has run out of parts.

JOB 10 20 30 40 50 DUE DATE 260 256 260 265 275 DURATION (DAYS) According to the LPT rule, the sequence of jobs should be 10, 50, 40, 20, 30 b) What is the average completion (flow) time? The average completion (flow) time is 62.8 days (round your response to one decimal place) c) What is the average job lateness? The average job lateness is 11.0 days (round your response to one decimal place). d) What is the average number of jobs in the system? The average number of jobs in the system is jobs (round your response to one decimal place). 28 12 8 18 22 D Points: 2 of 4 All dates are specified as manufacturing planning calendar days. Assume that all jobs arrived on day 200 (yesterday) in the order shown but are not scheduled to begin until day 201 (today). a) Sequence the jobs according to LPT
