Which of the following is likely to increase the utilization of a resource with a setup time?a. Increase the flow rate c. Decrease the batch sizeb. Decrease the processing time d. Increase the setup time

Which of the following is an example of a lagging KPI?   A. Revenue growth   B. Customer retention rate   C. Website traffic   D. Employee satisfaction

For every online course, the applications that students are required to use will be the same. True O False

Capacity is the degree to which input resources are physically changed by the conversion process.;True or False

The implied utilization can never be bigger than 100 percent. True or false?a. Trueb. False

The bottleneck resource in a process has the least idle time. True or false?a. Trueb. False

Which of these changes will serve to break order synchronization?

P1 P4 P2 P3 P5 P5 P5 P6 ... P1 has a production rate of 15 units/hour, P2 = 30 units/hour, P3 = 10 units per hour, P4 = 4 units/hour, P5 = 1 unit(s) per hour for each P5 and P6 = 6 units per hour. Operation P4 occurs seperately from and simultaneously with operations P1-P3. Operation P5 has three parallel and identical lines; therefore, each part only needs to go through one of the three lines. Consider the following two independent improvements: Improvement 1: Change station P4 into two connected stations (P4-1 and P4-2, connected in series) that have process times of 4 min/unit and 6 min/unit respectively. Improvement 2: Add two additional P5 stations to give you 5 parallel and identical lines. Improvement 2 increases capacity because it improves the bottleneck. The new bottleneck is station P4 since the original bottleneck has a process time of The new yearly capacity would be units per year. a) Which of the two improvements will provide the largest increase in capacity? What is the…
