Hi John, why is the TPAR computed only using info for the bottle neck (Alpha), but not for the other two processes? Need to know urgently..Thanks

Hi John, in your solution provided, why is the TPAR only computed for the bottle neck resource (Alpha), but not for Beta & Gamma as well? Thanks.

Hi John, the throughput is $250 not 250 units (since selling price and direct material cost are in $ terms) just for clarity purposes

Note:

The bottleneck resource can always be easily spotted without having to perform any calculation just by identifying that process with the lowest capacity (if you’re given a question where the production capacities of all processes are in units) or by identifying that process with the slowest time (if given a question where the processing times for all production processes are in hours)

Ok thanks. Would you suggest using Kaplan Publishing’s or BPP’s revision/exam kit? Torn between the two, but in your own opinion, which of the two resources would you say students have had greater success with?
