Q Scenario 1: BBCCRevisit Billy Bob’s Campus cookies (BBCC) discussed in the assigned reading, “Process Analysis: Definitions, Tools, and Insights”. For questions 1, 2, and 3 assume no parallel processing takes place. This means that only one activity is going on at any point in time. Since the cookie sheets can hold exactly 1 dozen cookies, BBCC will produce and sell cookies by the dozen. How much time will it take to fill an order of 2, 3, or 4 dozen cookies?

Scenario 1: BBCC No parallel processing 1. For an order of 2 dozen cookies: ? Stir the first dozen: 6 minutes + 2 minutes = 8 minutes ? Bake the first dozen: 1 minute to set the oven + 9 minutes to bake = 10 minutes ? Remove and cool the first dozen: 5 minutes ? Pack the first dozen: 2 minutes + 1 minute to accept payment = 3 minutes ? Total time for the first dozen: 8 minutes + 10 minutes + 5 minutes + 3 minutes = 26 minutes
