Question

The following information is from a manufacturing company Process time Inspection time Move time Wait time 15.0 minutes 4.0 minutes 8.2 minutes 42.6 minutes a. Compute manufacturing cycle time Manufacturing cycle time Time Manufacturing cycle time b. Compute manufacturing cycle efficiency Compute manufacturing cycle efficiency Choose Numerator: I Choose Denominator: - Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency Manufacturing cycle efficiency What percentage of time is spent on value added activities? What percentage of time spent on non-value added activities

Explanation / Answer

Workings:

Total delivery cycle time which includes process, inspection, move, and wait time is 69.8 minutes. Process time 15.0 minutes is value-added time while the inspection, move, and wait time are non-value added time of 54.8 minutes.

Value added time % = 15.0/69.8 = 21.49%

Non-value added time % = 54.8/69.8 = 78.51%

a. Manufacturing cycle time Time Process time 15.0 minutes Inspection time 4.0 minutes Move time 8.2 minutes Manufacturing cycle time 27.2 minutes
