In the welding operations of a bicycle manufacturer, a bike frame has a flow time of about 13.6 hours. The time in the welding o

peration is spent as follows: 3 hours waiting in front of the cutting machine for the batch to start, 3 hours waiting for the setup of the machine, 1 hour waiting for the other pieces of the batch to go through cutting, 2 minute at the cutting machine, and 3 hours waiting for the transfer to the welding machine. Then, at the welding machine, the unit spends 1 hour waiting in front of the welding machine for the batch to start, 1 hour waiting for the setup of the welding machine, 0.6 hour waiting for the other pieces of the batch to go through welding, 0.65 minute at the welding machine, and 1 hour waiting for the transfer to the next department.

Answer:

Exact flow time in hours

13.64416 hours

% value added flow time = 0.3236

Explanation:

Hours to start = 3

Set up = 3 hours

Time spent cutting = 2 minutes

Time through cutting = 1 hour

Transfer = 3 hours

Time waiting for welding machine = 1 hour

Time for set up = 1 hour

Time waiting for pieces of batch = 0.6 hours

Time at welding machine = 0.65 minutes

Time to transfer to next department = 1 hour

To get the exact flow time we convert the minutes to hour

2 minutes to hour = 2/60 = 0.03333

0.65 minutes to hour = 0.65/60 = 0.01083

We sum up all of these hours

3+3+0.03333+1+3+1+1+0.6+0.01083+1 = 13.64416 hours

1.

13.64416 is the exact flow time in hours.

2.

Value added percentage of flow time

13.64416-13.6

= 0.04416

Percentage = 0.04416/13.64416*100

= 0.003236x100

= 0.3236%

Dafna1 [17]

If the midlands pencil corporation has issued several different debt securities, an investor would expect the lowest income stream from <u>convertible debentures.</u>

Convertible bonds have many positive attributes for investors, but the main drawback is that investors accept lower interest rates in exchange for these benefits.

Convertible debentures are fixed rate debentures that pay interest but can be converted into a specified number of ordinary shares or shares. Conversion of a bond into equity may occur at certain times during the life of the bond and is generally at the discretion of the bondholder.

Due to this logic, a convertible bond allows the issuer to indirectly sell its common stock at a price higher than its current price. From a buyer's perspective, convertible bonds are attractive because they offer the opportunity to capture the potentially high yields associated with equities, but also the security of bonds.
