Given demand for jam of 100 kg per day and a batch size of 5 kg,
where is the bottleneck in the process? What is the capacity of the
bottleneck? Explain your result. Jam: 100 kg per day, Batch size:
5kg. Bottled Fruit: none One worker at each station
1a) How do we improve this situation? Do you agree that we
should buy a faster stove so that the heating can be done more
quickly?
