Explanation / Answer

a) ThroughputRate = 96 per week ThroughputTime = 4/7 weeks

WIP = TT*TR = 96*4/7 = 54.857=55 new mothers

b) ThroughputRate = 243 per week ThroughputTime = 4/7 weeks

WIP = TT*TR = 243*4/7 = 138.857=139 new mothers

c) ThroughputRate = 243+96=339 per week ThroughputTime = 4/7 weeks

WIP = TT*TR = 339*4/7 = 193.714=194 new mothers

Earlier total for both wards=55+139=194. Therefore, no they are not correct as the number of new mothers staying will not reduce.

d) ThroughputRate = 243+96=339 per week ThroughputTime = 4/7 weeks

WIP = TT*TR = 339*4/7 = 193.714=194 new mothers
