There are ______ dimensions depicted on a product-process matrix.

2

Which of the following is an example of a product made with a project layout?

A house

Which of the following is NOT true about a workcenter layout? Multiple choice question. A workcenter layout can produce a wide variety of products. A workcenter layout is commonly used for systems with high production volumes. A workcenter layout is also called a job shop. In a workcenter layout, machines with similar functions are grouped together.

A workcenter layout is commonly used for systems with high production volumes.

Which common layout format refers to the progressive build of a product? Multiple choice question. Assembly line Workcenter Manufacturing cell Project layout

Assembly line

Which layout moves product from workstation to workstation at a controlled rate? Multiple choice question. Continuous process Assembly line U-shaped layout Retail layout

Assembly line

Which the following describes the layout for items produced through a fixed sequence of workstations? Multiple choice question. Project Workcenter Assembly line Manufacturing cell

Assembly line

Days-of-Supply

Average Inventory/Cost of goods sold x 365

Which of the following products would use a project layout? Multiple choice question. Bridge Automobile Mass produced toy Laptop

Bridge

Which process layout is best used for manufacturing liquids?

Continuous

_____________ is used to avoid expensive shut downs by operating 24 hours a day. Multiple choice question. Assembly line Workcenter Project layout

Continuous process

Inventory turn

Cost of goods sold/Average inventory

Last year a firm had an average inventory of $1,500,000 and the cost of goods sold was $3,750,000. What was the days-of-supply last year?

Days-of-Supply = Averageinventory/ Costofgoodssold ×365=$1,500,000/$3,750,000×365= 146

Which of the following is NOT a step in the process of developing a manufacturing cell? Multiple choice question. Determine which machines perform the same process. Physically regroup machines into cells. Group parts into families that follow a common sequence of steps. Identify dominant flow patterns for each f

Determine which machines perform the same process.

Little's law relates inventory, throughput rate, and flow time as

INVENTORY: throughout rate x flow time

Identify the true statements about assembly-line and continuous process layouts. Multiple select question. In a continuous process, a product moves continuously through the process. In an assembly line, the stations are completely independent of each other. Often, the item being produced in a continuous process is a liquid or chemical that actually flows through the system. In an assembly line, a product goes through a progressive set of steps

In a continuous process, a product moves continuously through the process. Often, the item being produced in a continuous process is a liquid or chemical that actually flows through the system. In an assembly line, a product goes through a progressive set of steps.

Last year a firm had an average inventory of $1,500,000 and the cost of goods sold was $3,750,000. What was the inventory turn last year?

Inventory turn = CostofgoodssoldAverageinventory=$3,750,000/$1,500,000=2.5

The long-term relationship between inventory, throughput, and flow time is mathematically related using

Little's law

The issue of balancing the level of finished inventory against the level of service to the customer occurs in which type of firm?

Make-to-stock

Which layout format groups machines to work on products that have similar processing requirements?

Manufacturing cell

Which are characteristics of a continuous process line? Multiple select question. May operate 24 hours a day. Product is moved from one workstation to the next workstation in a sequence of events. Highly automated machinery is used. Shutdowns can be expensive.

May operate 24 hours a day. Highly automated machinery is used. Shutdowns can be expensive.

Rank the production process layouts from lowest- to highest-volume (top to bottom).

Project Workcenter Manufacturing cell Assembly line

In which production system does the product remain in one place while resources (such as workers or equipment) travel to the product when needed? Multiple choice question. Assembly line Project layout Cellular layout

Project layout

_____________ techniques are typically used to manage production processes that follow a project layout structure. Multiple choice question. Bulk inventory Project management Made-to-stock Lean manufacturing

Project management

Total average value of inventory

Sum of raw material, work-in-process, and finished goods inventory

The point in the supply chain where inventory is positioned to allow the preceding processes to operate independently is the

customer order decoupling point.

Workcenters with large amounts of interdepartmental traffic are often placed Multiple choice question. adjacent to each other. in areas where few machines are located. far away from each other. near exits.

adjacent to each other.

An _____ arranges processes according to the sequence of steps by which the product is manufactured.

assembly line

A manufacturing cell is generally made up of ___________ machines. Multiple choice question. similar identical dissimilar

dissimilar

Inventory turn is calculated by

dividing cost of goods sold by average inventory value.

Firms whose product is built directly from raw materials and components in response to a customer are known as

make-to-order.

When a company groups dissimilar machines to work on products that have similar processing requirements, it's using a(n) ___________ layout

manufacturing cell

If inventory turn is known, days-of-supply is calculated by

multiplying the inverse of inventory turn by 365 days.

In an assemble-to-order system, the total number of unique combinations possible is calculated by

multiplying the number of options for each choice together.

Workcenters are often focused on

one type of operation

Workcenters are often structured to___________ the movement of material.

optimize

The __________-_______ matrix shows when different production process types are used in relation to product volume and standardization.

A framework depicting when the different production process types are typically used depending on volume and standardization is known as the

product-process matrix.

In a project layout, a high degree of __________ is common. Multiple choice question. process cell formation workcenter design assembly line work task ordering

task ordering

A production process map is built by

tracking the flow of material through the system.

Standardization on the product-process matrix refers to Multiple choice question. variations in the product. raw materials shared between processes. the amount of product being produced. the volume the process is designed to produce.

variations in the product.
