A restaurant has a capacity of serve 150 customers during the dinner time from 5 to 9 pm. In a typical evening, the restaurant serves an average of 120 customers. What is the restaurant's capacity cushion? a. 20% b. 67% c. 25% d. 50%

A grocery store has three open checkout counters. There is a single queue leading up to these three counters. On average, 45 shoppers arrive at this queue. The coefficient of variation of the interarrival time is equal to 1. The average service capacity of each of the three servers is 18 customers per hour, and the coefficient of variation of service time distribution for each server is 3.  (a) (3 points) What is the percentage decrease in capacity utilization when one more checkout lane is added to the system?  (b) (7 points) On average, how many customers are waiting in the queue?

A retail catalog operation employs a bank of six telephone operators who process orders using computer terminals. When a terminal breaks down, it must be disconnected and taken to a nearby electronic repair shop, where it is repaired. The mean time between terminal breakdowns is six working days, and the mean time required to repair a terminal is two working days (both exponentially distributed). As a result of lost sales, it costs the mail-order operation an estimated $50 per day in lost profits each day a terminal is out for repair. The company pays the electronics repair shop $3000 per year on a service agreement to repair the terminals. The company is considering the possibility of signing a new service agreement with another electronics repair shop that will provide subsitutute terminals while the broken ones are at the repair shop. However, the new service agreement would cost the mail-order operation $15,000 per year. Assuming that there are 250 working days in a year, determine…

Consider the table attached below:Assuming an M/M/1 setup, a service rate of 18 customers every 10 minutes, and a traffic intensity of 0.90.Assume a probability density function characterized by the exponential distribution.i). Compute the corresponding variates.ii). How robust is the above derived density function?

Knott's Industries manufactures standard and super premium backyard swing sets. Currently it has four identical swing-set-making machines, which are operated 275 days per year and 8 hours each day. A capacity cushion of 20 percent is desired. The following information is also known Annual Demand Standard Processing Time Average Lot Size Standard Setup Time per Lot a. Does Knott's have sufficient capacity to meet annual demand? Knott's does Standard Model 20,000 5min 50 30 min Super Premium Model 10,000 17 min 30 45 min have sufficient capacity to meet annual demand because 3 machines are needed. (Enter your response rounded up to the next whole number.) b. If Knott's was able to reduce the setup time for the Super Premium Model from 45 minutes to 30 minutes, would there be enough current capacity to produce 20,000 units of each type of swing set? If Knott's was able to reduce the setup time for the Super Premium Model from 45 minutes to 30 minutes, there would not be enough capacity to…

There are six workers, one at each of the six stations (A-F). They begin their workday at 8:00a.m. and work steadily until 4:00 pm. (They are replaced with other workers for breaks and lunches, but the production is not slowed or stopped during these times.) Their hourly wage rate is $25 per hour. You can assume unlimited demand. What is the average labor utilization (you can ignore any start-up or empty system effects) of the six workers? Please give your answer in decimal form (e.g. 0.5 for 50% utilization).

A company operates 8 hours per shift, two shifts per day, five days a week with 12 hours maintenance per week and other downtime of 2 hours per week. What is the effective capacity in hours per week? Moving to the

d CE Additional Algo 5-11 Attrition Losses and Yields A process has three resources and two types of flows. The first flow has a demand of 20 units per day, and the second flow has a demand of 40 units per day. The first flow type visits all three resources, while the second flow type only visits the first and the third resources. The capacity is 100 units per day at the first resource, 40 units per day at the second resource, and 70 units per day at the third resource. 1. What is the demand total for each resource?
