Explanation / Answer

Manufacturing cycle time: The amount of time required to turn raw materials into completed product is called throughput time, or Manufacturing cycle time and is calculated in the following manner:

Manufacturing cycle time = Process time + Inspection time + move time + queue time

= 0.2 + 0.8 + 0.5 + 0.5 + 0.2 + 2 + 7 + 2

= 13.2

Value-added time: Value added time is the time spent on improving the outcome of a process. This is typically just the processing time associated with production. All of the other intervals associated with a process, such as wait time and queue time, contribute nothing to the outcome and so are considered non-value added time.

Value added time = 0.2 + 4+ 2 + 4 + 1.6 = 11.8
