Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The throughput time includes the time it took to process the order (4.5 hours), the wait time in the queue (5.5 hours), and the time it took to receive the order (2.9 hours). Therefore, the total throughput time is:
4.5 hours + 5.5 hours + 2.9 hours = 12.9 hours
Thus, the correct choice is B.
4.5 hours + 5.5 hours + 2.9 hours = 12.9 hours
Thus, the correct choice is B.
Explanation :
Throughput time = Process time + Inspection time + Move time + Queue time
= 1.6 hours + 0.4 hours + 2.1 hours + 8.8 hours = 12.9 hours
= 1.6 hours + 0.4 hours + 2.1 hours + 8.8 hours = 12.9 hours
