Case StudyThe ARCASNA company is dedicated to the manufacture of dog and cat food. Recently, the industrial engineering team became aware of potential areas of opportunity in the area of dog meat manufacturing. Currently, 45 liters of the solution are used to create them, and 50 jumbo, 75 medium and 100 small-sized chews are produced daily, to be sold and distributed in single packs (jumbo), trios (medium) and 5-packs (small). Recently there were inspections by the new manager in the industrial engineering area and the team realized that at the end of the day, among the "waste" (the material that remains at the end of each process), there is enough material left to fill a 5-liter bucket, which is wasted and thrown away. However, as there are 10 processes in total, there is very little left over at each of the stations, so they had never stopped to analyze the total loss per line. There are 6 workers on the line, distributed as follows: (Shown in the attached image). In addition, the…

Fedori Corporation has a Parts Division that does work for other Divisions in the company as well as for outside customers. The company's Machinery Division has asked the Parts Division to provide it with 4,000 special parts each year. The special parts would require P23.00 per unit in variable production costs. The Machinery Division has a bid from an outside supplier for the special parts at P37.00 per unit. In order to have time and space to produce the special part, the Parts Division would have to cut back production of another part-the YR24 that it presently is producing. The YR24 sells for P40.00 per unit, and requires P28.00 per unit in variable production costs. Packaging and shipping costs of the YR24 are P3.00 per unit. Packaging and shipping costs for the new special part would be only P1.50 per unit. The Parts Division is now producing and selling 15,000 units of the YR24 each year. Production and sales of the YR24 would drop by 20% if the new special part is produced for…
