There are six workers, one at each of the six stations (A-F). They begin their workday at 8:00 a.m. and work steadily until 4:00 pm. (They are replaced with other workers for breaks and lunches, but the production is not slowed or stopped during these times.) Their hourly wage rate is $25 per hour. You can assume unlimited demand. What is the process capacity (you can ignore any start-up or empty system effects), in razors/hour

Answer:

60

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation for What is the process capacity in razors/hour

Based on the information given we would be using process capacity of station D Assembly 3:

Process capacity of D=1/60*60sec *60 mins

Process capacity of D=1/60*3,600 razors per hour

Process capacity of D=60

Therefore the process capacity in razors/hour will be 60
