Cost estimation: Is the process of forecasting the financial and other resources needed to
complete a project within a defined scope.

Industrial production: it refers to the output of industrial establishments and covers sectors
such as mining, manufacturing, electricity, gas and steam and air-conditioning.

Chain of production: is a various stages that are involved in the production of a particular
product.

Serial production: is organized with a view to the quantity, it is used to manufacture large
quantities of goods.

Unit production: It’s the manufacturing technique used to produce a 0-5 products.

Input: It is the raw material used in the realization of product.

Output: It is the finished product after production.

Miscellaneous: It is extra expenses added to an estimation for unforeseen expenditures.

Depreciation of machines: It is process in which a machine loses it accuracy of machining as

it was from when it was manufactured.

Phase: Phase are all operations carry out in the same working post.

Sub phase: is when you change the position of the piece in the same working post.

Operation: Is the specific action of working on a machine.

 Specification: is the process of given a particular indication or representation to a work.

Contractual delay: refers to a time limit obtain after taking a work to realize.

Quantitative estimate: An approximation in the amount of material needed for the execution
of the project

III - 1 you need to study the realization of 450 000 of this assembling.

1- Calculate the number of pieces to realize a month.

N1 = 450000/12 = 37500

2- Calculate the number of pieces to realize a week.

N2 = 37500/4 = 9375

3- Calculate the number of pieces to realize a day.

N3= 9375/5 = 1875

4- Following your result, give the name of production.

a- Number of pieces to realize a month: Large production

b- Number of pieces to realize a week: Large production

c- Number of pieces to realize a day: very big production

d- Name of production: very big production
