PPC Quiz With Answer

Standardization aims to have fewer product choices and components to focus on production operations. It is easier to measure productivity for service operations than goods operations since there are no materials used in services. A computer system with a CPU reliability of 0.4, monitor reliability of 0.6, and printer reliability of 0.5 will have an overall reliability of 0.5. Batch manufacturing facilities produce some intermediate products in intermediate volumes.
