City Guilds Model Questions Vol1 2019 Engineering Question 36
Practice objective / multiple choice question 36 from the 2019 City Guilds Model Questions Vol1 Engineering examination.
An engineering workshop must produce \(300\) identical components in an 8‑hour shift (\(480\) min). Two manufacturing processes are available:\n\n- Process A: setup time \(20\) min, processing time \(1\) min per component, unit cost \(\text{₦}0.60\), maximum capacity \(250\) components per shift.\n- Process B: setup time \(15\) min, processing time \(2\) min per component, unit cost \(\text{₦}0.40\), maximum capacity \(200\) components per shift.\n\nBoth setups are incurred only if the corresponding process is used. Determine how many components should be produced by each process so that the total production cost is minimized while meeting the \(300\)-component requirement and not exceeding the shift time.
