Use the elemental standard times that you calculated (which were in minutes) to determine a value for L & W for this calculation. Assume an automatic machine cycle time (M) of 3.0 minutes. The operator is paid $12.00/h and the machines cost $42/hr to run.

Determine the value for "N" as well as the unit cost per part for the two assignment alternatives.
