RD RESPONSE PILL KIT cuny> STUDENTS Ch 3 GRADED As Consider a process consisting of three resources. Assume there exists unlimited demand for the product Resource 1 has a processing time of 6 minutes per unit. Resource 2 has a processing time of 4 minutes per unit Resource 3 has a processing time of 7 minutes per unit Resource 1 Resource.2 Resource3 All three resources are staffed by one worker. The flow diagram is shown above. Round "Capacity of resource" to 3 decimal places and other numbers to whole a. What is the capacity of resource 2? b. What is the bottieneck in the process? c.

Explanation / Answer

Answer A:- The capacity of Resource 2 = ¼ =0.25 units per minute

Answer B:-

Capacity of Resource 1= 1/6=0.17 units per minute

Capacity of Resource 2= ¼=0.25 units per minute

Capacity of Resource 3= 1/7=0.14 units per minute

As the least capacity is of resource 3 thus resource 3 has the bottleneck.

Answer C:- Starting with an empty system the first unit will take 6 + 4 + 7 = 17 minutes. The cycle time of the process is 1/0.143 = 7 minutes. Thus, the remaining 201 units require 201*7 = 1407 minutes and all 202 units take 1407+17=1424 minutes.
