Answer:

Answer:

1. MCE = 21.42%

2. Delivery Cycle Time 22 days

Explanation:

The Manufacturing Cycle Time is given by the formula:

Manufacturing cycle time = Inspection Time + Process Time + Move Time + Queue time

Here we have

Inspection time =1.5 days

Processing time =3.0 days

Move time =2.5 days

Queue time= 7.0 days

Wait time= 8.0 days

Manufacturing Cycle  Time = 1.5+3.0+2.5+ 7.0=  14.0 days

MCE= Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency Time= Process Time/ Processing Time + Inspection Time + Move Time + Queue time

MCE = 3/ 14=0.2142= 21.42%  

It means that MCE  consists of 21.42 %actual processing and 79 % consists of non value added activities.

2.  Delivery Cycle Time= Manufacturing Cycle  Time + Wait time

Delivery Cycle Time= 14.0 days + 8.0 days= 22.0 days

The difference between wait time and queue time is that wait time is the time when the customer places an order until it is delivered.And queue time from the start of the production of the order.

Which of the following policies are consistent with the goal of increasing productivity and growth in developing countries? Chec
Law Incorporation [45]

Answer:

The correct answer to the following question is options B) and D) are correct.

Explanation:

For developing nations to keep growing and developing, it is important that they promote innovations, manufacturing , promoting investment etc, so if they provide tax breaks to firms then firms would be more likely to invest more in the nations economy, so therefore option B) applies.

If a country increase taxes on the savings income, then it would lead to decrease in the investment in the economy, people would be less willing to spend and invest. So this option doesn't apply.

If a country pursues inward oriented policies , then  market surplus won't be maximized, so this option will also not apply.

Option D will apply because if a developing nation sets its property right correctly and clearly and they impose contracts on the foreign firms , then it would be beneficial for them.
