Dear Sir, please help me to explain about the question 31 in the Study text.I do not understand the answer:Process Alpha is the bottleneck as it can only process 25 units per hour. Why throughout per hour of process Alpha is 25 means that?Thank you.
June 29, 2020 at 8:59 am #574907I am sorry but I don’t have a Study Text (only the BPP Revision Kit).
June 29, 2020 at 10:29 am #574943Dear Sir,
The answer is that : Throughout per hour of process Alpha is 25, so Process Alpha can only produce 25 units per hour.
Please kindly help me to explain this point. I don’t understand the relationship between throughput per hour and number of unit produced per hour.Thank you.
June 30, 2020 at 9:48 am #575405The two things mean the same. The throughput per hour is the number per hour that the process is capable of producing.
June 30, 2020 at 12:11 pm #575428Thank you sir,if so I can understand why alpha is the bottleneck resource.
