Explanation / Answer

Answer to 1(a)

The different kind of scheduling technique in short term production processes within organization are as follows:

(i) First Come First Served Scheduling
(ii) Earliest Due Dates Scheduling
(iii) Shortest Processing Time Scheduling
(iv) Slack Time Remaining Scheduling
(v) Critical Ration Scheduling

Answer to 1(b)

(I)

Average Hours Early = Total Hrs Earliest/No. Of Jobs
= 3/5 Hrs
= 0.6 Hrs

Average Hours Past Time= Total Hrs Tardiness/No. Of Jobs
= 36/5 Hrs
= 7.2 Hrs

Average WIP Inventory = Total Flow Time/Highest Flow time
= 115/44
= 2.61

Average Hours Early = Total Hrs Earliest/No. Of Jobs
= 18/5 Hrs
= 3.6 Hrs

Average Hours Past Time= Total Hrs Tardiness/No. Of Jobs
= 38/5 Hrs
= 7.6 Hrs

Average WIP Inventory= Actual Pickup Time/Highest Flow time
= 102/44
= 2.32

(II) Shortest Processing Time (SPT) rule is suitable if job flow time is critical.

(III) Shortest Processing Time (SPT) rule is suitable if WIP Inventory is critical.
