Save Charles Lackey operates a bakery in Idaho Falls, Idaho Because of its excellent product and excellent location, demand has increased by 25% in the last year. On far too many occasions, customers have not been able to purchase the bread of their choice. Because of the size of the store, no new ovens can be added At a staff meeting, one employee suggested ways to load the ovens differently so that more loaves of bread can be boked at one time. This new process will require that the overs Employees are paid $8 per hour. In addition to the labor cost, Charles also has a constant utility cost per month of $550 and a per loaf ingredient cost of $0.50 loaded by hand, requiring additional manpower. This is the only production change that will be made in order to meet the increased demand.

CarCity is a big retailer for car parts and accessories. The store stocks different types and sizes of car tire. One of the best selling tires is the Tiger Model R125, which is currently purchased from a factory in Indonesia. An analysis of the purchasing operation shows that approximately 2 labor hours are required to process a purchase order, regardless of the quantity purchased. Salaries in the purchasing Department average OMR 15 per hour, including employee benefits. In addition, a detailed analysis of 20 previous purchase orders showed that OMR 132 was spent on telephone, paper, and other consumables directly related to the ordering process (see guidelines above to obtain value of 132). Shipping cost from Indonesia is OMR 250 for a container. A container has a capacity of 800 tires. The lead time for shipments from Indonesia is 15 days. Finally, CarCity’s financial analysts established a holding cost of 30% for this type of tire. The annual demand for the R125 tire is constant at…

A company that makes a product recently purchased some new equipment that reduces the labor content of the jobs needed to produce the product. Prior to buying the new equipment, the company used six workers, who produced an average of 90 units per hour. Workers receive P35 per hour and machine cost was P2,000 per hour. With the new equipment, it was possible to transfer one of the workers to another department, and equipment cost increased by P500 per hour while output increased by four units per hour. Compute the multifactor productivity under each system. Use units per peso cost (labor plus equipment) as the measure.
