Zodiac Sound Company manufactures audio systems, both made-to-order and mass-produced systems that are typically sold to large-scale manufacturers of electronics equipment. For competitive reasons, the company is trying to increase its manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) measure. As a strategy for improving its MCE performance, the company is considering a switch to JIT manufacturing. While the company managers have a fairly good feel for the costs of implementing JIT, they are unsure about the benefits of such a move, both in financial and nonfinancial terms. To help inform the ultimate decision regarding a move to a JIT system, youve been asked to provide some input. Fortunately, youve recently attended a continuing professional education (CPE) workshop on the costs and benefits of moving to JIT and therefore feel comfortable responding to managements request. Required: 3. Given the estimated data below, calculate the MCE for both the current manufacturing process and the proposed process after implementing JIT: Activity Current System After JIT Implementation Storage 64 minutes 24 minutes Inspection 34 minutes 19 minutes Moving 49 minutes 19 minutes Processing 64 minutes 34 minutes 4. What is the percentage change in average MCE anticipated under JIT?
