FALSE? 27) Which of the following statements about sources of production waste is B) Over-processing is a waste because it means more time is spent on a flow unit than necessary. C) Working overtime is a waste because it means more labor cost are spent to correct mistakes instead of adding value. is spent on a flow unit than A) Rework is a waste because resources necessary D) Waiting is a waste because resources are not fully utilized. 28) The overall equipment effectiveness framework identifies what percentage of a resource's time is and what percentage is A) value-added time, wasted time C) equipment time, labor time B) available time, value-added time D) available time, wasted time 29) Which of the following statements about wasting time of a flow unit is TRUE? A) By reducing the waiting time of a flow unit, the time it takes to turn inputs into output is decreased B) The process flow diagram shows where and why a flow unit spends time in a process. c) Holding everything constant, an increase in flow time improves the extent to which an operation is considered lean D) The value-added time of a flow unit is equal to its takt time.Explanation / Answer
27. A
Working overtime is a waste because it means more labor cost is spent on a flow unit than necessary. This is a false statement. Overtime may be required to meet the demand and it not necessarily mean that spent amount is more than necessary. Hence the correct answer is C.
28. D
Overall equipment effectiveness framework is used to determine the usage of equipment during the scheduled time. I finds out what time duration is used during the schedule. It determines the available time and wasted time. The correct answer is D
29. A
If we reduce waiting time of a flow unit then the entire flow time reduces. Reduction in flow time means that the time from input to output is reduced. The correct answer is A. The rest of the statements are either not correct or incomplete.
