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

"Some​ companies, such as​ Heinz, can forecast revenues well using pure time series analysis​ (that is, by extrapolation of prio
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Heinz sells ketchup and other sauces and condiments. Their demand is relatively stable and doesn't change that much year after year. The demand for their products is not that seriously affected by economic recessions or expansions.

On the other hand, Sony is a consumer electronics company and the demand for their products can vary drastically from one year to another. It depends on trends and innovations, and their total sales are affected by disposable income (expansions increase disposable income while recessions decrease it).

FedEx is also affected severely by economic recessions or expansions. Since FedEx ships and transports goods, when the economy is booming, FedEx is doing excellent. But if the economy starts to cool down or enters a recession, the amount of goods transported falls.

You start work at 7:30 am and take a half an hour unpaid lunch at 11:30 AM and then start work at 5:30 PM. How much hours will y
scoray [572]

The number of hours worked for which I will the receive the payment is 7 hours.

<u></u>

<u>Explanation:</u>

Considering the working hour is from 7:30 am to 8:30 pm

Initial work hours = 7:30 to 11:30am

number of hours = 4

If I start working at 5:30 pm and work till 8:30 pm then the number of hours would be 3

Thus,

total number of hours worked = 4 + 3

                                                  = 7

Therefore, number of hours worked for which I will the receive the payment is 7 hours.

Lesechka [4]

Answer:

B. $12,000,000

Explanation:

Hi there!

At the beginning of 2020 we estimate the credits that will be uncollectible and constitute the allowance for uncollectible.

<u>The journal entry:</u>

                                                                      Debit             Credit                          

Bad debts expense                               $15,000,000

Allowance for uncollectible account                             $15,000,000

During the year $88,000,000 was collected and part of the forecast must be reversed since it was overestimated (remember that it was estimated to collect $85,000,000 from the $ 100,000,000)

<u>The jorunal entry:</u>

                                                                    Debit             Credit

Allowance for uncollectible account    $3,000,000

Bad debts expense                                                      $3,000,000
