b.         80 minutes per hour

c.         95 minutes per hour

d.         105 minutes per hour

            flow unit to be restored to a good flow unit.

a.         reduction, defective

b.         reduction, nondefective

c.         repetition, defective

d.         repetition, nondefective

 

7. Which of the following statements concerning rework is TRUE?

a.         Rework does not involve performing an extra set of activities.

b.         Rework does not involve inventories.

c.         Rework can never return a process yield to 100%.

d.         Rework increases the demand rate for a resource.

 

8. Which of the following statements concerning rework is TRUE?

a.         Rework involves only bottleneck resources.

b.         Rework does not affect overall process capacity.

c.         Rework leads a lower overall process yield than scrap.

d.         Rework leads to a higher overall process yield than scrap.

 

Answer:

Rework attempts to restore the overall process yield to 1. Scrap, on the other hand, simply exits the process according to the yield at a resource.

11. A four-step process is used to make a product. The first resource takes 8 minutes per unit, the second takes 7 minutes per unit, the third takes 2 minutes per unit, and the fourth takes 10 minutes per unit. 20% of all units must be reworked. For that, they must revisit the third and fourth resources. Each resource is staffed by one worker. Rework takes the same processing times as the first pass and always fixes the problem. Where is the bottleneck?

A.         Resource 1

B.         Resource 2

C.         Resource 3

D.        Resource 4
