Question

Joe Jones, plant manager at Waco Industries, told a friend that if it was necessary, his plant could produce 1,000 items a day if all conditions were just right. Joe is describing his plant's:
a. Effective capacity.
b. Yield rate.
c. Utilization.
d. Maximum capacity.

Answer 1

Answer:

Correct option is (d)

Explanation:

Capacity refers to the amount of goods that a plant or organization can produce. Maximum capacity refers to the total number of goods produced at maximum efficiency.

In this case, Joe's plant could produce 1,000 items if all conditions are met, which means when the plant is at its highest efficiency. This states the maximum capacity of the plant.
