project will end after 200 hours.

Answer : The critical path therefore is A C E F G I (200 hours). The activities that
can be delayed include ones with slack times > 0. Thus, B (10 hours), D (10 hours), and H (10 hours) can be delayed.

3.6 Since the critical path is A C E F G I, only those variances are along the critical
path are used. Therefore, the variances along critical path are 11.11, 400, 2.78, 0, 44.44, and 44.44 . So
the sum of these variances 502.77= .
Thus, the project completion standard deviation 502.77 22.4= .

3.10 Helps to modify the AON with the lowest costs to crash
1. CP is A C F ; C is cheapest to crash, so take it to 3 wks at $200. (and $200 < $250) 2. Now both paths through are critical. We would need to shorten A or F, or shorten C
and either B/E. This is not worth it, so we would not bother to crash any further.

Assume dues are collected at the beginning of each year. This is a simplificationin reality, people are likely to join throughout the year. (Technically, if equipment is sold at the end of year 5, it should probably appear as a final revenue stream in year 6 but the difference is only $2,952.45.
b. Special deal comparison: $3,000 for all 6 years. Compare the PV cash stream of yearly dues from one member to that of the deal. Since we specified the club will always be full, we can make the assumption that the member (or her replacement) will always be paying the annual fee.

schedule is to produce 700 per month and have no costs associated with work force variation. The only costs incurred will be the monthly production cost, the inventory cost, and the shortage cost. The costs are calculated as follows.

14.6 The following table lists the components used in assembling FG-A. Also included for each
component are the following information: the on-hand supply, lead time, and direct components.

tree to help you answer the questions on the Bill-of-Materials and lead time.

b. Total lead time (in weeks) associated with making an item of FG-A, assuming we had no starting on-hand for any part? 6 weeks
Look at all branches of the product structure tree (or an assembly time chart, if we
had one). The most common mistake people tend to make is to forget the LT associated with final assembly.
Longest branch is 6 weeks 1wk FGA 2wks SA-C 3wks F= + + c. Yes, if we wanted to make one FG-A, we need to order more of either E or F.
We have enough F on-hand, but need 4 more E. Now we look at the on-hand quantities and see we have 10 E and 5 F. Compare that
to the BOM calculated above. No subassemblies like SA-B, SA-C or SA-D, so we are going to need all the component parts. Our on-hand records show we have 14 E and 4 F, so we are short 4 E.

Answer : The 321 schedule finishes in 22 days, 1 day faster than the 123 schedule, which
finishes in 23 days. 15.7 a. We begin by taking 5 empty slots
b. Next, we find the shortest time in the table. It is product 2678 on Machine B. Since this is on the second machine, this product can be done as late as possible.
2678
c. Then we find the shortest again. It is 2800 on B 2800 2678 d. Then it is 2731 on A. Since it is on the first machine, it is the earliest job.

Step 1: Separate setup into preparation and actual setup, doing as much as possible while the machine/process is operating.
Step 2: Move material closer and improve material handling Step 3: Standardize and improve tooling Step 4: Use one-touch system to eliminate adjustments Step 5: Train operators and standardize work procedures

Note: Payoffs and expected payoffs are in $1000s.
a. Build the large facility. If demand proves to be low, then advertise to stimulate demand. If demand proves to be high, no advertising option is available (so dont advertise).
b. Expected Payoff: $544,000. A.10 Approach: Set up and solve via a decision table.
Cost per dozen bagels: Labor: $16.50 hr
$1.65 dozen10 dozen hr

Suppose: B = dozens baked in A.M. D = dozens sold during the day (= dozens demanded)
Then, ( )$3 $1 iftotal profit$3 if

Also, since demand is between 4043 dozen bagels, inclusive, always more profitable to bake 40 dozen than fewer than 40 dozen, AND always more profitable to bake 43 dozen
than more than 43 dozen. From work above, decision table, expected values, and answer
are as follows.
