A time study is conducted on a process that has three (3) separate operations. The process involves five (5) masons placing 1 cubic yard of concrete for each cycle. Ten cycles of each operation are carried out to improve accuracy.  The results of the study are as follows:  (SHOW YOUR CALCULATIONS IF POSSIBLE) Operation                              Total time (seconds) for 10 cycles or repetitions # 1                                           975 # 2                                           643 # 3                                           917 ——————————————————————————- Overall total                          2,535 seconds (for 10 cycles) The observer assigns the following factors: Allowance = 14%, Rating = 125 % NOTE THAT IT IS NOT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE VALUES FOR EACH INDIVIDUAL OPERATION – ONLY THE TOTAL. a.) Determine a standard time in minutes per cycle for the entire process and record (FOR 1 CYCLE) the values for the following:                                 Select time PER CYCLE :__________________ Normal time (seconds)=_______________________ Standard time (in minutes) =__________________________ b.) Using the standard time for the crew of 5 masons, calculate the work productivity as cubic yards per mason hour of material, OR mason hours per cubic yard.      Productivity in: Cubic yards per mason hour________________      OR Productivity in : Mason hours per cubic yard________________
