A product line has two models: X and Y. Model X consists of 4 components: a, b, c, and d. The number of processing operations required to produce these four components are 2, 3, 4, and 5, respectively. Model Y consists of 3 components: e, f, and g. The number of processing operations required to produce these three components are, 6, 7, and 8 respectively. The annual quantity of Model X is 1000 units and of Model Y is 1500 units. Determine the total number of (a) components and (b) processing operations associated with these two models.

The computation is shown below:

a. The total number of components

For Model X

= 1,000 units * 4 components

= 4,000

For Model Y

= 1,500 units * 3 components

= 4,500

b. The processing operations are as follows

For Model X

= 1,000 units * (2 + 3 + 4 + 5)

= 1,000 units * 14

= 14,000

For Model Y

= 1,500 units (6 + 7 + 8)

= 1,500 units * 21

= 31,500
