Consider the following information for the manufacturing cell of Stripes Company:

Line Item Description Numerical Value

Maximum units produced in a quarter $252,000$ units

Actual units produced in a quarter $210,000$ units

Productive hours in a quarter $42,000$ hours

Compute the theoretical cycle time and the actual cycle time in minutes.

a$.$ Theoretical cycle time is $12$ minutes per unit, and actual cycle time is $10$ minutes per unit.

b$.$ Theoretical cycle time is $6$ minutes per unit, and actual cycle time is $4$ minutes per unit.

c$.$ Theoretical cycle time is $10$ minutes per unit, and actual cycle time is $12$ minutes per unit.

d$.$ Theoretical cycle time is $4$ minutes per unit, and actual cycle time is $6$ minutes per unit.
