Question

Determine the utilization and the efficiency for each of these situations:

a. A loan processing operation that processes an average of 4 loans per day. The operation has a design capacity of 15 loans per day and an effective capacity of 8 loans per day. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place. Omit the "%" sign in your response.)

b. A furnace repair team that services an average of 3 furnaces a day if the design capacity is 7 furnaces a day and the effective capacity is 6 furnaces a day. (Round your answer to 1 decimal place. Omit the "%" sign in your response.)

c. Would you say that systems that have higher efficiency ratios than other systems will always have higher utilization ratios than those other systems?

This is not necessarily  (Click to select)  false  true  . If the design capacity is relatively  (Click to select)  low  high  , the utilization could be  (Click to select)  low  high even though the efficiency was

Explanation / Answer

a)

Utilization % = (8/15)*100 = 53.3%

Efficiency % = (4/8)*100 = 50%

b)

Utlization % = (6/7)*100 = 85.7%

Efficiency % = (3/6)*100 = 50%

c)

This is not necessarily true.
