Given these observed times (in minutes) for four elements of a job, determine the observed time (OT) for each element. Note: the second element only occurs every other cycle.
Element Cycle 1 Cycle 2 Cycle 3 Cycle 4 Cycle 5 Cycle 6
1 4.1 4.0 4.6 4.1 4.1 4.1
2 - 1.5 - 2.4 - 1.4
3 3.2 3.2 3.8 3.2 3.3 3.3
4 2.7 3.0 2.7 2.8 2.8 2.8

Answer:

Element 1 = 4.17 Observed time

Element 2 = 1.77 Observed time

Element 3 = 3.33 Observed time

Element 4 = 2.8 Observed time

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the observed time (OT) for each element

Based on the information given we have 4 Element and 6 Cycle for Element 1,3 and 4 while Element 2 has 3 cycle

First step is sum up each element cycle i.e addition of cycle 1 to cycle 6

Element Cycle 1 Cycle 2 Cycle 3 Cycle 4 Cycle 5 Cycle 6

1. 4.1 +4.0 +4.6 + 4.1 +4.1 + 4.1 = 25

2. - 1.5 - 2.4 - 1.4 =(1.5+2.4+1.4)=5.3

3. 3.2 +3.2 +3.8 +3.2+ 3.3 +3.3= 20

4. 2.7 +3.0 +2.7 +2.8 +2.8+ 2.8 = 16.8

Now let find the Observed time by dividing the figure that was sum up for each of the element by the numbers of cycle that each element has.

OBSERVED TIME

Element Cycle 1 Cycle 2 Cycle 3 Cycle 4 Cycle 5 Cycle 6

1. 4.1 +4.0 +4.6 + 4.1 +4.1 + 4.1 = 25/6= 4.17 Observed time

2. - 1.5 - 2.4 - 1.4 =(1.5+2.4+1.4)=5.3/3=1.77 Observed time

3. 3.2 +3.2 +3.8 +3.2+ 3.3 +3.3= 20/6= 3.33 Observed time

4. 2.7 +3.0 +2.7 +2.8 +2.8+ 2.8 = 16.8/6=2.8 Observed time

The question is about the observed time cycles of 4 given elements.

OT of each cycles will be added together for each element. and divided by total number of cycles for each element.

1 4.1+4.0+4.6+4.1+4.1+4.1 = 25 / 6 = 4.17

2 -1.5 -2.4 -1.4 = 5.3 / 3 = 1.77

3 3.2+3.2+3.8+3.2+3.3+3.3 = 20 / 6 = 3.33

4 2.7+3.0+2.7+2.8+2.8+2.8 = 16.8 / 6 = 2.8

Each elements total cycle OT is added and then it is divided with each elements relevant number of cycles and this as a result provides the answer to the question
