The company is also measurement. After much study, the company has decided to use the performance measures below, and it encountered, including problems evaluating its suppliers and moving toward Lean Production. Many adjustment problems have been relating to performance Delivery cycle tise (eays) Manufacturing cycle effielency (NCE) Percentage of on-time deliveries Total sales (units) 1372 1871 1800 Management has asked for your heip in computing throughput time, delivery cycle time, and MCE The following average times have been logged over the last four months es Process tise per unit 2.8.7 25 Required 1-a Compute the throughput time for each month Compute the delivery cycle time for each month 1c Compute t the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for each month the company's performance over the last four me, and so forth, given for month 4. Assume that in month 5 the move time process time, and so 3-a Refer to the move time, process forth, are the same as in month queue time during peoduction Compute the new throughput time and MCE 4, except that through the use of Lean Production the company ts able to completely eliminate the e move time, process time, and so forth, given for morith 4 Assume an month 6 that the move time, process sme, and so the same as in month 4 except t hat the company is able to completely eliminate both the queue time during forth, are again production and the inspection sime. Compute the new throughout sme and MCE Complete this question by entering your answers in the tabs Requred 2 DOLL
