1. If a worker has times of 21.4, 21.7, 21.8, 21.6, and 21.3 and their
The performance rating is 95%, what is the normal time for this?
Operation? Is it faster or slower than normal?
2. If the worker from problem 1 had a performance rating of
115%, what is the normal tempo for the operation? Is it faster or more
slower than normal?
3. In reference to problem 1. a) If the slack factor is 17%, what is the
standard time for this operation? b) If the slack factor is 14% and
The performance rating is now 90%, what is the standard time?
for this operation?
4. After being observed many times, a waitress has a tempo
average observed of 10 minutes to prepare an order. The qualification
The performance is 95%. The restaurant where she works has a
personal slack, due to delay and fatigue of 18%. a) Find the time
normal for this process. b) What would the standard time be?
5. An operator took the following observed times, in minutes, for
carry out the packaging process of a product: 22.8, 22.6, 22.4, 22.7 and
22.5. If the performance rating of the operator is 95% and the factor of
The tolerance is 15%. What is the standard time for the process of
packaging?
6. For the completion of a certain task, 4 elements are developed. The times
obtained in the time study are shown in the table. Taking as
Based on these observations, determine the standard time for the task.
Assume a personnel downtime of 5%, a fatigue allowance of 5%, and a
buffer for delays of 7%.
The task took longer than expected due to delays in the raw material.
The task took longer than expected because the worker was interrupted.
by his/her supervisor.
7. Calculate the standard time from the data in the table shown.
continuation. Assume a slack factor of 18%.
8. What would be the appropriate sample size for element B of the
task of exercise 7? Assume a confidence level of 99% and a precision
of 5%. Suggestion: Calculate the average of the times and the standard deviation
data standard.
9. The data obtained from a time study are shown below
for an assignment:
The company has established that due to the working conditions a 6% will be given.
for personal supplement, 6% for fatigue supplement, 5% for delays and a
4% for other supplement factors.
a) What is the standard time for the task?
b) How many observations of element D are needed to ensure a level
with a 97% confidence level and a 5% margin of error?
10. A sampling of the work was conducted for a customer service advisor.
a call center and the following results were obtained.
a) What percentage of time is devoted to work?
b) Calculate the sample size to determine if the amount of
The observation made was correct. I took a 95.45% level of confidence.
and an acceptable error of 3%.
11. In a production process, 1520 observations were made of one of
the operators. According to the study, in 973 of the observations the
the worker was working. Determine:
a) The percentage of time he/she was working.
b) The percentage of time he/she devoted to activities unrelated to the
work.
c) With a confidence level of 95% and a margin of error of 5%, what should be
What is the sample size?
