3. A novelty coffee mug manufacturer produces 5 different designs that are sold at tourist information kiosks. The demand requirements for the com- ing tourist season is as follows: Design A D E Demand (units) 500 750 600 800 450 The mugs can all be produced in the same workstations, but require different processing and setup times. The production information is in the following table: Design Batch Size (units) A C D E 50 50 50 50 50 Setup Time (hr/batch) Processing Time (hr/unit) 0.15 0.15 0.25 0.25 0.10 2 2.5 4. 1.5 The company wants to produce all the required mugs in one four-week pe- riod. It currently operates workstations that work 8 hours per day, 5 days per week, with a capacity cushion of 20%. (a) Calculate the total time required to produce the mugs to meet the ex- pected demand.

Problem 5: You have the following information:Demand rate = 250 units per hourLead time = 15 hourscontainer capacity = 300 units per hourSafety Stock = 20%a Determine the number of Kanban cards required.b Convert these Kanban cards into the number of hoursof demand they represent.c. If the container size is reduce from 300 to 150 units,what impacts, if any, will it have on inventory levels?

29  Meritor is so pleased with the outcome from previous suggestions that the consultants are invited back for more work. The consultants now suggest a more complete robotic automation of the making of muffler assemblies and also a reduction in container size to five per container. Meritor implements these suggestions and the result is that the muffler assembly fabrication cell now averages approximately 20 assemblies per hour, and the catalytic converter assembly cell can now respond to an order for a batch of catalytic converters in one hour. The safety stock remains at 11.5 percent. How many kanban cards are needed? Note: Round up your answer to the next whole number.

Opportunity costs are relevant to which of the following decisions? Whether to accept a special order when capacity is limited Whether to makeor buy a product No Yes No No Yes No Yes Yes

Rick Wing has a repetitive manufacturing plant producing automobile steering wheels. Use the following data to prepare for a reduced lot size. The firm uses a work year of 300 days. Setup labor cost Annual holding cost Daily production (8 hours) Annual demand for steering wheels Desired lot size (2 hours of production) $60.00 per hour $19 per unit 1,040 units/day 33,000 (300 days x daily demand of 110 units) Q = 260 units a) Setup cost = $ b) Setup time = (round your response to two decimal places). minutes (round your response to two decimal places).

A bagel store orders cream cheese from three suppliers, Cheesy Cream Corp. (CCC), Super Smooth & Sons (SSS), and Bagel's Best Friend Co. (BBF). One month, the total order of cheese came to 100 tons. (The store does do a booming trade.) The costs were $80, $50 and $65 per ton from the three suppliers respectively, with the total cost amounting to $6,710. Given that the store ordered the same amount from CCC and BBF, how many tons of cream cheese were ordered from each supplier?
