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.
I am sorry but I don’t have a Study Text (only the BPP Revision Kit).
Dear 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.
The two things mean the same. The throughput per hour is the number per hour that the process is capable of producing.
Thank you sir,if so I can understand why alpha is the bottleneck resource.
You are welcome 🙂
