Bisutti Cams is producing its Racing Camshaft models RC1 and RC2. It is a three-state process that involves collecting the appropriate items from inventory, assembling, and then inspecting them. Bisutti Cams is making its labor estimates for the next four quarters for the collecting, assembling and inspecting operations. The RC1 requires 5 hours of labor and the RC2 requires 2 hours. The collecting process uses 20% of its labor resources, the assembling uses 70%, and the inspecting uses 10%. The production schedule for the next four quarters is given below.

Calculate the labor hours required in the collecting, assembling, and inspecting processes for the next four quarters.

Labor Hours required in the Four Quarters

Quarter

Endproduct                             1           2         3             4

RC I                                         100       120     200        140

Total Hours Required         500        600     1000      700

Step 1 ) We multiply  number of hours with  the products in each quarter to get the total hours required.

RC 2                                             200        250        150          100

No of Hours Required                   2            2            2             2    

Total Hours Required For R2     400          500      300       200

Step 2) We find the collecting, assembling, and inspecting hours by applying the percentages to each quarter hour.

odd consecutive integers are odd integers that follow each other. they have a difference of 2 between every two numbers. if n is an odd integer, then n, n+2, n+4 and n+6 will be odd consecutive integers. the first number in the pattern is always the variable on its own or in this case, "n". examples.
