The following information will be used for 2 questions on this exam: Charlotte Corporation's management keeps track of the time it takes to process orders. During the most recent month, the following average times were recorded per order: Time spent between receipt of order and start of production 3.7 days Time spent ensuring quality levels 0.2 days Time spent working on the product 1.3 days Time spent transporting the product between work stations 0.8 days Time spent waiting to be worked on in the factory 6.9 days What is the throughput time?

Respuesta :

Answer:

6.00 days

Explanation:

data provided

Inspection time = 3.7 days

Process time = 0.2 days

Move time = 1.3 days

Queue time = 0.8 days

The calculation of throughput time is given below:-

Throughput time = Inspection time + Process time + Move time + Queue time

= 3.7 days + 0.2 days + 1.3 days + 0.8 days

= 6.00 days

Here, we added the inspection time, process time , move time and queue time to reach at throughput time and we ignore the time spent waiting to be worked on in the factory as it is not relevant.
