1. If we assume an average of 22 working days per month in the factory, how
many calculators will need to be produced per day in the factory if the monthly
demand is 8274 units (Choose the closest answer) 8274/22= 376.09

2. What is the Cycle Time that ensures the desired output rate? (Note: NEVER round
up your cycle time!!! You should be able to figure out why this should never be done. Think
about it, what would happen if you rounded up?)Use the number you round down to in all the calculations that follow.

3. What is the theoretical minimum number of workstations? (ALWAYS round up
workstations. Again, from the lecture you should know why.)
4. As you know, you should always round up your theoretical minimum number of
workstations. Nonetheless, the calculated theoretical minimum number of workstations is
not always attainable. Based on your calculation to the previous question, which of the
following seems most plausible?

A. You will be able to create an acceptable assembly line that has
EXACTLY the number of workstations as the calculated theoretical
minimum number.

B. You will be able to create an acceptable assembly line that has a
SMALLER number of workstations than the calculated theoretical
minimum number.

C. Creating an acceptable assembly line that has exactly the theoretical
number of workstations in very UNLIKELY. It is very likely you will
need MORE workstations than the calculated theoretical minimum
number
