Accounting

Balance the assembly line shown below for (a) a shift output of 30 pieces and (b) a shift output of 24 pieces. Assume an 6-hour shift, and use the rule: choose the assignable task with the longest processing time. Compute the line efficiency for each case.

  1. Fill in the table below for a shift output of 30 pieces. Break ties by choosing the lowest task number. If your answer is zero, enter "0". Round your answers to the nearest whole number.
