Question 1
A grocery store is trying to determine how many checkouts per hour its cashiers should perform. The checkout consists of three components; checking, bagging, and payment. A cashier was rated as 80%, 120%, and 95% on the three different components respectively. If a stopwatch timed her as averaging 20 seconds for each component and the store wants a 10% allowance calculate the total standard time.
Question 2
A manufacturing plant is trying to determine standard production per day for an incentive program. Suppose that the incentive program will pay $1 per unit produced above standard rates. A worker is timed at 280 seconds per unit, with a performance rating of 105%. The plant has an allowance factor of 13%. If he produces 100 units in an 8 hour shift, how much would he receive under the incentive plan?
