Question

Use the following information to answer the question(s) below. Cerebro Manufacturing produces four types of structural support fittings-plugs, rails, rivets, and clips-which are machined on two CNC machining centers. The machining centers have a capacity of 250,000 minutes per year. The gross margin per unit and machining requirements are shown in the spreadsheet below. Cerebro Manufacturing Model 2 Machine Product Plugs Rails Rivets Clips Capacity (mins.lyear) Gross margin/unit Minutes/unit Gross margin/minute Maximum production Profit $0.40 $1.20 0.80$1.10 250,000 What is the maximum possible production of rails based on the machine capacity? 125,000.00 83,333.33 166,666.67 250,000.00

Explanation / Answer

Production of rails based on the machine capacity is 166,666.67

Total year min/year is 250,000

Total mins/unit is 7.5

Rails unit is 2

So 7.5mins/unit-250000capacity

2mins/unit-?

=66.666

Total possible production is 100+66.666=166,666
