An automobile final assembly plant is being planned for an annual production of 150,000 cars. The plant will operate one shift,

250 days per year, but the duration of the shift (hr/shift) is to be determined. The plant will be divided into three departments: (1) body shop, (2) paint shop, and (c) general assembly. The body shop welds the car bodies, and the paint shop coats the welded car bodies. Both of these departments are highly automated. The general assembly department has no automation, but a moving conveyor is used to transport the cars through the manual workstations. A total of 14.0 hours of direct labor (work content time) are accomplished in general assembly. Based on previous lines installed by the company, it is anticipated that the following design parameters will apply to the general assembly department:line efficiency = 95%, balance efficiency = 94%, repositioning time = 0.10 min, and manning level = 2.5. If the plant must produce 60 cars per hour, determine the following for the general assembly department: (a) The number of hours the shift must operate.(b) The number of workers required.(c) The number of workstations.

Answer:

a. Rp= 10.0hr

b. Tc= 1052 workers

c. n= 421 workstations

Explanation:

(a) Rp= Da/250Hsh. Rearranging, Hsh= Da/250Rp= 150,000/250(60) = 10.0 hr

(b) Tc= 60E/Rp= 60(0.95)/60 = 0.95 minTs= Tc– Tr= 0.95 – 0.10 = 0.85 minw= Min Int 14.0(60)/0.85(0.94) = 1051.3 rounded up to 1052 workers

(c) n= w/M= 1052/2.5 = 421 workstations

Manuel has plans to go to a movie and already has a $10 nonrefundable, nonexchangeable, and nontransferable ticket. Now Poornima
Verdich [7]

Answer:

3. Correctly ignored a sunk cost

Explanation:

Sunk costs refer to those costs which have been incurred in the past and which can no longer be recovered. For example, past expenditure on research and development with no current or future benefits represent sunk costs which can no longer be recovered.

Sunk costs are irrelevant for decision making process as they do not relate to current projects and yield no economic benefit.

In the given case, Manuel had already purchased a $10 movie ticket, which can neither be transferred nor eligible for a refund.  Later when he does not exercise the option of going for the movie and opts for a concert instead, the amount of 10$ spent on the movie represents a sunk cost which is non recoverable.

then impact of risky behaviour on one's well-being by referring to social,emotional,physical and spiritual ​
maria [59]
Spiritually, risky behavior can truly take a toll. If you are religious, your actions won’t be in line with your beliefs (most likely). There is a trickle down effect from there. Lots of times, risky behavior makes a person feel paranoid because a person is doing things s/he feels is wrong. All of that takes a toll on a person physically. When you compromise yourself, you will tend to be on an emotional roller coaster. Not a great way to live
