Question

A student has 3 total hours available for studying every night. An op's professor assigns her students 10 op's questions every day. After the student "prepares himself" to work on operations, each problem takes 6 minutes to complete. An accounting professor similarly assigns her students 10 questions every day, each of which takes 6 minutes to complete after the student is "prepared" to work on accounting. The student is "prepared" to immediately work on the next op's problem if he just completed an op's problem, and similarly he is "prepared" to immediately work on an accounting problem if the student just completed an accounting problem. Unless he just completed an op's problem, it takes the student 5 minutes to get prepared before tackling an op's problem, and similarly, unless he just completed an accounting problem it takes him 5 minutes to get prepared to tackle an accounting problem. What is the "pure process time" associated with completing one homework problem?

   1. 6 minutes

   2. 11 minutes

   3. It depends on the lot size

   4. 5 minutes

Explanation / Answer

Pure processing time is the total time needed to complete a single task which doesnot include the setup time either. To complete each problem student takes 6 minutes. Hence the correct option is 1. 6 minutes.
