Schurz Corporation's management reports that its average delivery cycle time is 33 days, its average throughput time is 15.0 days, its manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) is 0.32, its average move time is 0.4 day, and its average queue time is 7.0 days.

Required:

a. What is the wait time? (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)

b. What is the process time? (Round your answer to 1 decimal place.)

c. What is the inspection time? (Round your intermediate calculations and final answer to 1 decimal place.)

Explanation / Answer

a. Wait time = Delivery cycle time - Throughput time = 33 days - 15 days = 18 days

b. Process time = MCE X Throughput time = 0.32 X 15 days = 4.80 days

c. Inspection time = Throughput time - Process time - Move time - Queue time
= 15 days - 4.80 days - 0.4 days - 7 days =  2.80 days
