Question

you are targeting a Total production volume increase of 10% in next seven days and compared to the last 7 days actual production volumeassuming you maintain the same productivity rate at last week for the next seven days approximately how many scheduled hours feel you need to schedule to achieve his goal

Answer 1

Answer:

Let x = current producton rate in vol/hour.

Then the current production volume in 7 days is

V = (24*7)x = 168x

The targeted production increase is 10%, so the new weekly volume is

1.1*(168x) = 184.8x

Let y =  the extra hours required to meet the new targeted volume. Therefore

(168 + y)x = 184.8x

Divide by x.

168 + y = 184.8

y = 184.8 - 168 = 16.8 hours

Answer:

For the week:

The scheduled hours is 184.8

The extra hours is 16.8
