Question 7 of 12 100 Points What is the total oost of producing 100 units in a process that has a leaning rate of 0.9 and an initial cost of $507 : A. Cannot be determined O B. $6,000 C. $49.66 ) D. $2.907.06 Question 8 of 12 10.0 Points Recall the video from class that disousses how a hospital used an idea from the Toyota Production System (TPS) to manage its inventory in a store room in such a way that they always had supplies available. Which of the following statements about that system are accurate? A. Deploying the system led to pulling work through the system instead of pushing work B. The system controls the work in process inventory C. The system requires cross-training all workers D. Deploying the system led to pushing work through the system instead of puling work

Explanation / Answer

7.

T1 = $50

C = cumulative improvement factor and C for 100th unit at learning rate of 0.9 = 58.14 (fromm learning curve table)

Thus Tn = T1*C

or T 100 = $50*58.14

= $2,907 (Thus the answer is option "d")

8. TPS uses buffer inventories between line segments. This is done to avoid the production line from getting blocked and starved.

TPS is associated with aggressive cross training and few job classifications.

Hence the answer is option "c" - the system requires cross training all workers.
