Chapter 2
Productivity = Quantity of Output
Quantity of Input
Chapter 4
Total Costs (TC) = Fixed Costs (FC) + (Unit Costs (c) x Quantity (Q))
Cost Difference = Total Cost Vendor A (TCA) – Total Costs Vendor B (TCB)
Chapter 19
Activity on Node:
Early Finish (EF) = Early Start (ES) – T (time to perform activity)
Last Start (LS) = Last Finish (LF) – T (time to perform activity)
Crash Cost
Crash Cost per unit of time = Crash Cost – Normal Cost
Normal time – Crash time
PERT
Expected Time = (a + 4m + b)/6
Variance = (b – a)2 / 36
Chapter 5:
Taguchi Loss Function
The loss function is: L(x) = k(x – T) 2
Where:
L(x) is the monetary value of the loss associated with deviating from
the target, T;
x is the actual value of the dimension; and
k is a constant that translates the deviation into dollars
Chapter 6:
Breakeven Analysis for Outsourcing
Q* = FCO – FCI
CI – CO
Where:
Where:
Cx = X coordinate of the center of gravity
Cy = y coordinate of the center of gravity
Xi = x coordinate of location i
Yi = y coordinate of location i
Wi = volume of goods or services moved to or from location i
Chapter 8:
Cycle Time:
CT = A / R
Where: A = the available time to produce the output
R = demand forecast
Chapter 9:
Forecast error is the difference between the observed value of the time
series and the forecast, or
Forecast error = At - Ft
At represents the value of the time series for period t. We will let Ft
represent the forecast value for period t.
Where:
X = number of units produced
α = hours required to produce the first unit
Y = time to produce the xth unit
-b = constant that defines a 100p percent learning curve (i.e. if p =
0.8, then we have an 80% leaning curve)
Where :
It – 1 = ending inventory in period t - 1
Pt = production in time period t
Dt = demand in time period t
It = inventory at the end of period t
Projected On Hand Inventory
POHt = OHt – 1 + S/PRt - GRt
Where:
POHt = Projected on-hand in period t
OHt – 1 = On hand inventory in period t - 1
S/PRt = Scheduled or planned receipts in period t
GRt = Gross requirements in period t
Capacity Requirements:
Capacity required (Ct) = Setup time (Si) + Processing time (Pi) x
Order size (Qi)
Chapter 15
Flow time is computed
Fi = S i + P i
Where
Fi = flow time of job i
Si = start time of job i
Pi = processing time of job i
Chapter 11
Two ways of computing resource utilization are:
Utilization (U) = Resources Used / Resources Available
Utilization (U) = Demand Rate / (service rate x number of
servers)
Where:
CW = waiting cost per hour per customer
K = number of servers
CS = the hourly cost associated with each server
L = the average number of customers in the system (queue and
in service)
Chapter 12
Where:
Q* = Economic Order Quantity
D = annual demand of the product
Ch = costs of holding one unit of inventory for the year
Co = costs of placing one order
Reorder Point
r = demand rate x lead time
Chapter 13:
Inventory Turnover:
Inventory Turnover (IT) = Sales / Average Inventory
Inventory Turnover (IT) = Cost of goods sold / Average inventory value
Finally:
Cash to Cash Conversion Cycle = IDS + ARDS – APDS
Cp = USL – LSL
6σ
Where:
Chapter 16:
Six Sigma Measures output quality by defects:
Defects per unit (DPU) = Number of defects discovered / Number of
units produced
Defects per
million opportunities = Number of defects discovered x 1,000,000
Opportunities for error
Chapter 17:
Process capability index is the relationship between the natural variation
and specifications. The formula is:
Cp = USL – LSL
6σ
Where:
Chapter 18:
JIT practice is to set the lot size or container size equal to about 5 to
20 percent of a day’s demand. The following equation is used to
calculate the number of Kanban cards (K) required:
Where:
