(3 pt.) A twelve-station in-line assembly machine has an ideal cycle time = 10 sec. The base part is automatically loaded prior to the first station, and components are added at each of the stations. The fraction defect rate at each of the ten stations is q = 0.01, and the probability that a defect will jam is m=0.6. When a jam occurs, the average downtime is 3.0 min. Cost to operate the assembly machine is $90.00/hr. Cost of components being assembled is $0.60 per unit assembly. Other costs are ignored. Determine (a) average production rate (asby/hr) of all assemblies, (b) yield of good assemblies, (c) average production rate of good product (asby/hr), (d) uptime efficiency of the assembly machine (%), and (e) cost per unit ($/unit).
