1a. Compute the throughput time for each month.
1) , 2) ,3) ,4)
1b. Compute the manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for each month.
1) % , 2) %, 3) % , 4) %

1c. Compute the delivery cycle time for each month.
1) 2) 3) 4)


Refer to the move time, process time, and so forth, given for month 4.

Assume that in month 5 the move time, process time, and so forth, are the same as for month 4, except that through the implementation of Lean Production, the company is able to completely eliminate the queue time during production. Compute the new throughput time and MCE.

1) Throughput time=
2) Manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE)=
