Explanation / Answer

EPQ, Q0 = 548.87

Run Time (Duration of one production run) = 548.87/315 = 1.74 days

Number of production runs per year = 22.41

Total production time per year = 22.41*1.74 = 39.05 days

% of time the facility will be producing components = Total production time per year / number of working days per year = 39.05/250 = 15.62%
