Problem 1 Actual o/p =
310 per day
430 380 350 410
Solution:
System capacity is the capacity of the bottle neck = 350 per day
System efficiency = Actual output / System capacity
= 310 / 350 = 0.8857
= 88.57%

Problem 2
A work centre operates 5 days a week on a 2 shift per day basis,
each shift of 8 hrs duration. There are five machines of the same
capacity in the work centre. If the machines are utilised 80% and
system efficiency is 90% what is the rated output on hrs per week
Solution:
Rated o/p per machine per week = (5) x (2) x (8) x 0.8 x 0.9
= 57.6 hrs
