A crew of mechanics at the Highway Department garage repair vehicles that break down at an average of λ = 7.5 vehicles per day (approximately Poisson in nature). The mechanic crew can service an average of μ = 10 vehicles per day with a repair time distribution that approximates an exponential distribution.
a. What is the utilization rate for this service system?
b. What is the average time before the facility can return a breakdown to service?
c. How much of that time is spent waiting for service?
d. How many vehicles are likely to be in the system at any one time?

(a) Utilization is ρ = 7.5 / 10 = .75 or 75%; (b) Ws = 1 / (10 - 7.5) = 1 / 2.5 = 0.4 days; (c) Wq = 7.5 / 10∗(10 - 7.5) = 0.3 days; (d) Ls = 7.5 / (10 - 7.5) = 7.5 / 2.5 = 3 units.

1.6.50 = ($11,010/$1,695 average inventory).Average inventory = [(1,840 + 1,550)/2].
2.56 days, (365 days/6.50).
3.The inventory turnover ratio identifies how many times the inventory was sold or liquidated during the year's time while the average days to sell shows the volume of sales that can be supported in terms of number of days' stock on hand.As the inventory turnover increases,the company will carry less stock in terms of days' sales.
