Break-Even Analysis A standard approach to choosing among alternative processes or equipment Model seeks to determine the point in units produced (and sold) where we will start making profit on the process or equipment Model seeks to determine the point in units produced (and sold) where total revenue and total cost are equal 7-6

Break-Even Analysis (Continued) This formula can be used to find any of its components algebraically if the other parameters are known Break-even Demand= Purchase cost of process or equipment Price per unit - Cost per unit or Total fixed costs of process or equipment Unit price to customer - Variable costs per unit Purchase cost of process or equipment Price per unit - Cost per unit or Total fixed costs of process or equipment Unit price to customer - Variable costs per unit 7-7

Break-Even Analysis (Continued) Example: Suppose you want to purchase a new computer that will cost \$5,000. It will be used to process written orders from customers who will pay \$25 each for the service. The cost of labor, electricity and the form used to place the order is \$5 per customer. How many customers will we need to serve to permit the total revenue to break-even with our costs? Break-even Demand: = Total fixed costs of process or equip. Unit price to customer – Variable costs =5,000/(25-5) =250 customers Example: Suppose you want to purchase a new computer that will cost \$5,000. It will be used to process written orders from customers who will pay \$25 each for the service. The cost of labor, electricity and the form used to place the order is \$5 per customer. How many customers will we need to serve to permit the total revenue to break-even with our costs? Break-even Demand: = Total fixed costs of process or equip. Unit price to customer – Variable costs =5,000/(25-5) =250 customers 7-8

Manufacturing Process Flow Design A process flow design can be defined as a mapping of the specific processes that raw materials, parts, and subassemblies follow as they move through a plant The most common tools to conduct a process flow design include assembly drawings, assembly charts, and operation and route sheets 7-9

Example: Assembly Chart (Gozinto) A-2SA-2 4 5 6 7 Lockring Spacer, detent spring Rivets (2) Spring-detent A-5 Component/Assy Operation Inspection From Exhibit 5.14 7-10

Example: Process Flow Chart Material Received from Supplier Inspect Material for Defects Defects found? Return to Supplier for Credit Yes No, Continue… 7-11

Question Bowl What is the break-even in demand for a new process that costs \$25,000 to install, will generate a service product that customers are willing to pay \$500 per unit for, and whose labor and material costs for each unit is \$100? a.400 units b.250 units c.100 units d.62.5 units e.None of the above Answer: d. 62.5 units (25,000/(500- 100)=62.5) 7-12

Question Bowl Which of the following is an example of a Continuous Flow type of process flow structure? a.Fast food b.Grocery c.Hospitals d.Chemical company e.None of the above Answer: d. Chemical company 7-13
