Answer:
Answer:
1. MCE = 21.42%
2. Delivery Cycle Time 22 days
Explanation:
The Manufacturing Cycle Time is given by the formula:
Manufacturing cycle time = Inspection Time + Process Time + Move Time + Queue time
Here we have 
Inspection time =1.5 days
Processing time =3.0 days
Move time =2.5 days
Queue time= 7.0 days
Wait time= 8.0 days 
Manufacturing Cycle  Time = 1.5+3.0+2.5+ 7.0=  14.0 days
MCE= Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency Time= Process Time/ Processing Time + Inspection Time + Move Time + Queue time
MCE = 3/ 14=0.2142= 21.42%  
It means that MCE  consists of 21.42 %actual processing and 79 % consists of non value added activities.
2.  Delivery Cycle Time= Manufacturing Cycle  Time + Wait time
Delivery Cycle Time= 14.0 days + 8.0 days= 22.0 days
The difference between wait time and queue time is that wait time is the time when the customer places an order until it is delivered.And queue time from the start of the production of the order.
