Management of Mittel Rhein AG of Kln, Germany, would like to reduce the amount of time between when a customer places an order and when the order is shipped. For the first quarter of operations during the current year the following data were reported:

Inspection time	0.3	days
Wait time (from order to start of production)	14.0	days
Process time	2.7	days
Move time	1.0	days
Queue time	5.0	days

Required:

1. Compute the throughput time.

2. Compute the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for the quarter. (Round your percentage answer to nearest whole percent.)

3. What percentage of the throughput time was spent in nonvalue-added activities? (Round your percentage answer to the nearest whole percent.)

4. Compute the delivery cycle time.

5. If by using Lean Production all queue time during production is eliminated, what will be the new MCE? (Round your percentage answer to 1 decimal place.)
