He has therefore determined that he will reduce his component lot sizes. He has developed the following data for one component, the safety chain clip: Setup labor cost Annual holding cost Daily production Annual demand Desired lot size $30 per hour $16 per unit 976 units/8 hour day 46,200 (275 days each x daily demand of 168 units) 122 units (one hour of production) To obtain the desired lot size, the set-up time that should be achieved = minutes (round your response to two decimal places).
