Module 3 Practice Solutions UPLOADED

This document contains solutions to practice problems for a two-step process, batch size calculation, and milkshake production planning. It determines the capacities and bottleneck step for a two-step process. It then calculates the recommended batch size. It also shows calculations for determining the optimal batch size for a milkshake production process given total demand, setup time, and processing time per gallon to maximize resource utilization.

3 Practice Solutions Two-Step Process TS1. Capacity of Step B is 15 / (9 + 0.1 x 15) = 1.43 units per minute. Step A makes 1 unit per minute, so the bottleneck is the first step and the capacity of the process is 1. TS2. Recommended batch size = 1 x 9 / (1 - 1 x 0.1) = 10 Milk shake production MSP1. Total demand = 17.5 gal/hr. Total setup time = 1 hr. Processing time p = 1/30 hr/gal. Setting capacity = demand and solving for B gives B=42 gal. MSP2. 42*10/17.5=24 Irish Call Center (ICC) ICC1. Answer: Option e.
