Dear concern, I expect that this time you guys will do this assignment carefully. Read the questions properly. As like order id: 112868, 115000 don't do any mistakes. Moreover I asked for excel copy of my order 114557 but don't sent yet. Last couple of months i am with UNIfolks, hopefully you guys take care of me.


(40)1. A service has five tasks, performed in sequence. In the instance when there is more than one worker assigned to a task, each worker performs the entire task and they both can be working on different “items” at the same time. Task Task time per worker Number of workers 1 2 minutes 1 2 6 minutes 1 3 14 minutes 2 4 4 minutes 1 5 15 minutes 3 a. What is the capacity (hourly) of the process as a whole? b. What is the bottleneck of the process? c. What is the throughput time (assuming no wait time)? d. Where would you expect customers to wait? (70)2. Artie Siegel, an MBA student, has been having problems balancing his checkbook. His monthly income is derived from a graduate research assistantship; however, he also makes extra money in most months by tutoring undergraduates in their quantitative analysis course. His historical chances of various income levels are shown in the following table: Monthly Income* ($) Probability 350 0.40 400 0.20 450 0.30 500 0.10 *Assume that this income is received at the beginning of each month. Siegel’s expenditures also vary from month to month, and he estimates that they will follow this distribution: Monthly Expenses ($) Probability 300 0.10 400 0.45 500 0.30 600 0.15 He begins his final year with $600 in his checking account. Simulate the entire year (12 months) on the next page and discuss Siegel’s financial picture, i.e., will he be able to keep his head above water--(out of debt)? What is his expected average profit for the 12 months? Use the random numbers below. Random numbers for Income and Expenses Income 85 54 73 95 9 19 81 2 76 55 57 1 Expenses 99 44 1 80 95 72 75 16 32 57 31 32 (90)3. Hands-on is a company that features a product line of winter gloves for the entire family— men, women, and children. They want to decide what mix of these three types of gloves to produce. The Hands-on’s manufacturing labor force is unionized. Each full-time employee works a 40-hour week. In addition, by union contract, the number of full-time employees can never drop below 20. Nonunion, part-time workers also can be hired with the following union-imposed restrictions: (1) Each part-time worker works 20 hours per week, and; (2) There must be at least two full-time employees for each part-time employee. In terms of the manufacturing process, all three types of gloves are made out of the same 100 percent genuine cowhide leather. Hands-on has a long-term contract with a supplier of the leather and receives a 5,000 square-foot shipment of material each week. The material requirements and labor requirements, along with the gross profit per glove sold (Not considering labor costs), are given in the following table below: Glove Material Required (Square Feet) Labor Required (Minutes) Gross Profit (per pair of gloves) Men’s 2 30 $8 Women’s 1.5 45 10 Children’s 1 40 6 Each full-time employee earns $13 per hour, while each part-time employee earns $10 per hour. Management wishes to know what mix of each of the three types of gloves to produce per week, as well as how many full-time and part-time workers to employ while they would like to maximize their net profit—their gross profit from sales minus their labor costs. Formulate a linear programming model to determine the best mix of gloves and employees to have to maxmize their net profit. (DO NOT attempt to solve.) Briefly identify/describe each: decision variables, constraints and the objective function. (STANDARD FORM) Answer the following multiple-choice questions: Constraints are: A. quantities to be maximized in a linear programming model. B. quantities to be minimized in a linear programming model. C. restrictions that limit the settings of the decision variables. D. input variables that can be controlled during optimization. A(n) _________ solution satisfies all the constraint expressions simultaneously. A. feasible B. objective C. infeasible D. extreme (150)4. HBK, a food industry company wants to build a forecasting model to predict the sales of its hot beverage. HBK had the last weekly sales for the past 152 weeks. Using the time series components for trend (variable called tp) and seasonal--monthly dummy variables (using Dec as a baseline) and the causal variable of average weekly temperature HBK management build the model on the following page. Note the average hot-beverage weekly sales is $91,500. a. Evaluate the model on the following page, i.e., is it a good model? If so, why, or if not, why? Consider all the appropriate tests, use α = 0.05 for t test and α = 0.05 for F test. Notice on the following page is a plot of the residuals. DO ALL APPROPRIATE TESTS--COMPLETELY!!!! b. If you believe the model is OKAY, provide at least two reasons to justify your belief. On the other hand, if you believe the model is not OKAY, provide suggestions on how you would improve the model. c. Ranking the order of the months in terms of their impact on weekly sales, i.e., which month has the highest expected weekly sales, next highest, and which are the lowest and second lowest?

Answer the following multiple-choice questions: A set of observations on a variable measured at successive points in time or over successive periods of time constitutes a _____________ A. geometric series B. time invariant set C. time series D. logarithmic series With reference to time series data patterns, a cyclical pattern is the component of the time series that: A. shows a periodic pattern over one year or less. B. does not vary with respect to time. C. results in periodic above-trend and below-trend behavior of the time series lasting more than one year. D. is characterized by a linear variation of the dependent variable with respect to time. (120)5. The Ace Manufacturing Company produces two lines of its product, the super and the regular.

(40)1.
a. Capacity per task = Number of Worker/ Time Taken
Task 1 = ½
Task 2 = 1/6
Task 3 = 2/14 = 1/7
Task 4 = ¼
Task 5 = 3/15 = 1/5
b. A bottleneck is a process in a chain whose restricted capacity lowers the capacity of the whole chain operatio
ns as a whole. The least capable task in this instance is Task 3.
c. We now need to compute the over time. The duration of a production cycle, including process, inspection, additional, and queue times. When the amount of work being done on each job exceeds the amount of vital work being done, throughput will become constrained, supposing there is no wait time at this point.
The amount of critical work in progress may be determined by multiplying the bottleneck time by the sum of all task times (in hours): 8.57 * 0.68 = 5.8276.
The critical work in progress is 5.8276, which is less than the total work in progress time for all activities combined. The bottleneck capacity, which is 8.57 hours per day, will then be the throughput time.
d. The clients must wait until Task 3.

Amazingly, Siegel will conclude the year in a positive net position. Although he won't be in debt, he won't have any money set up to start the next year either. Additionally, there will be 262.5 in average monthly profit. I arrived at this amount by adding all the monthly ending balances and dividing by 12.
