Answer 1.
We apply the formula:
Cycle time (CT) = 2 days + 2 days + 8 days + (4 days + 4 days) / 0.6 = 25.33 days
Processing time (PT) = 0.5 Hrs + 4 Hrs+ 12 Hrs + (4 Hrs + 2 Hrs) / 0.6 = 26.5 Hrs
Cycle time efficiency (CTE) = 26.5/202.64 = 13.07 %
Cycle Cost (CC) = 20 $ + 40 & + 20 $ + 80 $ + (40 $ + 40 $) / 0.6 = 293.33 $
