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

The nation of Ectenia has 20 competitive apple orchards, which sell apples at the world price of $2 per apple. The following equ
Phoenix [80]

The  market's labor demand is L=500−2.5W

Since labor demand as a function of the daily wage is L 50-0.25W.

Hence,

The individual labor demand curve is: L=50−0.25W

Now let determine The market labor demand curve

The market's labor demand is :

L=10(50−0.25W)

L=500−2.5W

Inconclusion The market's labor demand is L=500−2.5W

Bob consumes food and housing. Suppose his marginal utility from an additional unit of food is 20 and his marginal utility from
lozanna [386]

Answer:

Option (E) is correct.

Explanation:

For utility maximization,

Bob's consumption of Housing and food should be such that:

\frac{Marginal\ utility\ of\ housing}{Price\ of\ housing}=\frac{Marginal\ utility\ of\ food}{Price\ of\ food}

Here,

\frac{Marginal\ utility\ of\ housing}{Price\ of\ housing}=\frac{100}{2}

                                                                                              = 50

\frac{Marginal\ utility\ of\ food}{Price\ of\ food}=\frac{20}{1}

                                                                                   =20

Bob is not maximizing utility, as these two terms are not equal(50 > 20).

Since the marginal utility per rupee spent on housing is greater than that on food.

Hence, Bob can increase his utility just by consuming more of housing and less of food.
