(Not a repeat question.) Rokat Corporation is a manufacturer of tables sold to schools, restaurants, hotels, and other institutions. The table tops are manufactured by Rokat, but the table legs are purchased from an outside supplier. The Assembly Department takes a manufactured table top and attaches the four purchased table legs. It takes 20 minutes of labor to assemble a table. In addition to assembly time, workers have an additional 20% of idle time for training and breaks. The company follows a policy of producing enough tables to ensure that 40% of next month's sales are in the finished goods inventory. Rokat also purchases sufficient raw materials to insure that raw materials inventory is 60% of the following month's scheduled production. Rokat's sales budget in units for the next quarter is as follows: How many employees will be required for the month of August for the Assembly Department? (Fractional employees are acceptable since employees can be hired on a part-time basis. Assume a 40-hour week and a 4-week month.) - 5.95 employees - 6.25 employees - 4.89 employees - 5.85 employees
