Please answer question 13.10
Question 13.9 is associated with it
Computador has a manufacturing plant in Des Moines that has the theoretical capability to produce 243.000 laptops per quarter but currently produces 91, 125 units. The concentration cost per quarter is $7, 290,000. There are 60 750 production hours available within the plant per quarter. In addition to the processing minutes per unit used, the production of the laptops uses 10 minutes move time, 20 minutes of wait time, and 5 minutes of rework time. (All work is done by cell workers.) Required: Compute the theoretical and Velocities (per hour) and the theoretical and actual cycle times (minutes per unit produced) Compute the ideal and actual amounts of conversion cost assigned per laptop. Calculate MCE. How does MCE relate to the conversion cost per laptop? Refer to Exercise 13.9. Assume that the company identifies poor plant layout as the root cause of wait time and move time. Required: Express an improvement strategy as a series if if-then statements that will reduce the conversion cost per laptop. Assume that you set an MCE target of 75 Percent' based on the movement strategy described Requirement 1. What, s the expected conversion cost per unit? Explain how you can use these targets to test the viability of your quality improvement strategy.
