Practice Problems

A manufacture of diesel engines for shrimp trawlers and other small commercial boats uses
CNC machines. One of their CNC machines has caused several problems. Over the past 30
weeks, the machine has broken down as indicated below. Each time the machine breaks
down, the firm lose an average of $3,000 in time and repair expenses. If preventive
maintenance were implemented, is estimated that an average of only one breakdown per
week would occur. The cost of preventive maintenance is $1,000 per week.

(b) What is the expected breakdown cost per week?
(c) What is the weekly total maintenance cost of this program?3000+1000=4004

Solution

(b) = 6 000
(c) -= 4000

Expected cost of repair: 1.85/year × $500 = $925/year.
Service contract = $650 < $925, therefore choose the fixed fee service contract.

A grocery chain has 50 refrigerated trailers. Each trailer is used for approximately 2,500 hours
per year. A critical part of the refrigerator is a belt that fails after an average of 575 hours with
standard deviation of 175 hours (time between failures is Normally distributed). If the belt is
replaced during a scheduled maintenance, the cost is $85. Given that the optimal scheduled
replacement interval is 445.5 hours what is the cost of non-scheduled replacement?
