    a) The standard time for the task is 1.456 minutes

    b) 330 work units are produced

    Explanation:

    According to the given data, the tn = 1.30 min for a repetitive task that produces one work unit per cycle and the company uses a PFD allowance factor of 12%, hence, in order to calculate the standard time for the task, we would have to use the following formula:

    tstd=tn (1+Apfd)

    tstd=1.30 (1+0.12)

    tstd=1.456 minutes.

    To calculate the work units that are produced in an 8-hour shift at standard performance we calculate the following:

    8*60 = 480 = 330 work units

    1,456 1,456
