Throughput Q:
Co makes 2 products: X and Y.
X Y
SP 50 32
Material 10 6
Labour 20 15
Assembly time 20min 15min
Max demand 1500 units 1000units
Total assembly time is limited to 600hrs. Using throughput, how many units Y should produce?
First contribution:
X: 50-10=40/0.3hrs=133.3, so X FIRST
Y: 32-6=26/0.25hrs=104, Y SECOND
X: 1500u*0.3=450hrs
Y: 600u*0.25=150hrs
Where am I getting wrong, as my answer of 600units does not match any of the mock exam?
15 min/60 min = 0.33h
1500 units * 0.33h = 500 h
Marcie: You have now asked this same question 5 times and have received answers each time.
If you continue to keep asking it then you will be removed from the site.
I do apologize, but I couldn’t view my post nowhere. It won’t happen again.
OK 🙂
