Production Rate
Batch production: batch time Tb = Tsu + QTc
Average production time per work unit Tp = Tb/Q
Production rate Rp = 1/Tp
Job shop production:
For Q = 1, Tp = Tsu + Tc
For quantity high production:
Rp = Rc = 60/Tp since Tsu/Q 0
Where Rc = operation cycle rate
For flow line production
Tc = Tr + Max To and Rc = 60/Tc
Production Capacity
Plant capacity for facility in which parts are made in
one operation (no = 1):
PCw = n Sw Hs Rp
where PCw = weekly plant capacity, units/wk
n = number of work centre working in parallel
Sw = number of shifts/wk
Hsh = hr/shift
Rp = Hourly production rate
Plant capacity for facility in which parts require
multiple operations (no > 1):
PCw = nSw Hs R p
no
where no = number of operations in the routing

Manufacturing Costs
Alternative classification of manufacturing costs:
1. Direct labor - wages and benefits paid to workers
2. Materials - costs of raw materials
3. Overhead - all of the other expenses associated with
running the manufacturing firm
Factory overhead
Corporate overhead
Overhead Rates
Factory overhead rate:
FOHC
FOHR = DLC
FOHC = annual factory overhead cost
DLC = annual direct cost
Corporate overhead rate:
COHC
COHR =
DLC
COHC = annual corporate overhead cost
where DLC = direct labor costs
