OVERLOAD CO makes gear module which includes two components: Component Lambda and Component Kappa. These components are produced in a Production resource and then assembled together in Assembly. A typical production cycle will include 400 units of Component Lambda and 100 units of Component Kappa and would involve two setups to switch between the two types of components. Each setup takes 45 minutes. Suppose that Production of these components has 1 worker and is the bottleneck resource in the process. Each Component Lambda takes 120 seconds to make and each component Kappa takes 420 seconds to make. Assume that there is sufficient demand and the process is capacity-constrained. Further assume that the Production resources is the bottleneck resource. You are further told that: Number of units of Component Lambda needed to make each gear module = 4 Number of units of Component Kappa needed to make each gear module = 1 (a) If a typical production cycle will include 400 units of Lambda and 100 units of Kappa, what would be the batch size of Component Lambda? (b) If a typical production cycle will include 400 units of Lambda and 100 units of Kappa, what would be the batch size of Component Kappa? (c) If a typical production cycle will include 400 units of Lambda and 100 units of Kappa, what would be the batch size of the component set? (d) What is the total processing time for each component set at Production? (e) What is the total processing time in each component set for Component Lambda at Production? (f) What is the total processing time for each component set for Component Kappa at Production? (g) If each setup at Production takes 45 minutes, what would be the total setup time in each production cycle? (h) Suppose that Production of these components has 1 worker and Production is the bottleneck resource in the process. What is the capacity of Production? Instructions: Round the final answer to 3 decimal places. Do not round intermediate workings. Use Excel to avoid rounding intermediate workings.
