To find the answer of the above questions you must have following information
- SAM of the Polo Shirt (i.e. 16 minutes)
- How many machines will be used to make the order (i.e. 20 machines)
- Daily working hours (i.e. 8 hours)
- Line efficiency (i.e. 100%)
To make 5000 polo shirts-
Capacity required = 5000 X 16 minute = 80,000 minutes = 1333 Hours
Available Capacity/Day = 20 X 8 hours = 160 Hours
Assumes that line works at 100% efficiency.
So, Days required (theoretical) to produce 5000 polo shirts = 1333 / 160 = 8.3 days (9 days)
If factory run at 50% efficiency then = 9 X100%/50% = 18 days
For planning add one more day as in practical one day will be lost for loading and line setting.
If you production is calculated at 50% efficiency then you need 19 days to complete the above order.
