Utilization can be calculated using the formula utilization = average output rate / maximum capacity.

Utilization = number of lots x setup time + processing time x number of units / number of hours per day x working days per year  

Utilization = [200 x 1 + (45/60) x 2000] / (8 x 215)  = 1700 / 1720 

Utilization = 0.9884   

The utilization is 0.9884 or 98.84%. capacity cushion can be calculated by subtracting the utilization from 1. The capacity cushion is 0.01163 or 1.17%

Answer:

The recent loss of 440 manufacturing jobs at Ford Australia has generated a lot of debate about the long-term viability of the Australian car industry, and manufacturing in general. This debate has included arguments that manufacturing is important and needs more government support. It has also seen some commentators argue that Australian’s have no right to expect jobs in manufacturing.

While most of this debate has focused on the automotive manufacturing sector, there is a wider question that needs to be answered. This relates to the issue of whether it is feasible for an advanced economy to grow and prosper without a manufacturing sector?

Overhead rate is calculated by dividing the overhead cost by the direct cost over a similar period of measurement. In our case, the basis is per hour. The overhead cost is the rough estimate of the cost made through the proper reference to the historical data for old establishments and projections for the new ones. This can be expressed as,
    overhead rate = (overhead cost / direct cost) x 100%

Substituting the known values,
   overhead rate = ($75 / $50) x 100%
   overhead rate = 150%

<em>ANSWER: overhead rate = 150% </em>
