The efficiency of a factory is 75% and its utilization 50%. If effective capacity is 1000 find design capacity.
Effective Capacity
The maximum output rate or service capacity an operation, process, or facility can be expected to achieve under normal conditions.
Design Capacity
The maximum output or performance level that a facility or product is engineered to achieve under ideal conditions.
