Please answer question 13.10. Question 13.9 is associated with it. NCC. Conversion cost can improve delivery. OB. Required: Times (minutes per unit produced). Exercise 13.10 Cycle Time and Velocity, MCE. Refer to Exercise 13.9. Assume that the company identifies poor plant layout as the root cause of wait time and move time. Required: 1. Express an improvement strategy as a series of if-then statements that will reduce the conversion cost per laptop. Described in Requirement 1. What is the expected conversion cost per unit? Explain how you can use these targets to test the viability of your quality improvement strategy. Exercise 13.11 Balanced Scorecard. Lead and Lag Variables. Double-L.

Question #5 (1 point) A firm has redesigned its production process so that it now takes 10 hours for a unit to be made. Using the old process, it took 15 hours to make a unit. If the process makes one unit each hour on average and each unit is worth $1,500, what is the reduction in work-in-process value? Question 6: The desired daily output for an assembly line is 360 units. This assembly line will operate 450 minutes per day. The following table contains information on this product’s task times and precedence relationships: Part (a): Draw the precedence diagram (1 point) Part (b): What is the workstation cycle time? (1 point) Part (c): Balance this line using the largest number of following tasks. Use the longest task time as a secondary criterion. (1 point) Part (d): What is the efficiency of your line balance?

The following table is a transportation matrix showing the cost ($) per unit of shipping from Plant i to Distributor j. The objective is to minimize shipping costs while meeting the demand placed by each Distributor. There is no shipment between Plant 2 and Distributor 2. Let x_ij = number units shipped from Plant i to Distributor j Solve the transportation problem and use the result to fill the boxes below. All answers are equally weighted. a) At optimal solution: x_11 = x_12 = x_13 = x_21 = x_22 = x_23 = x_31 = x_32 = x_33 = Minimum Cost = $ b) At optimal solution, how much unused capacity is available at each Plant? Slack at Plant 1 = units Slack at Plant 2 = units Slack at Plant 3 = units
