Explanation:
Customer orders for last year were 15000
Order for next year with 15% increase = 15000 x 1.15 = 17250
It takes 1.5 hours to fill a customer order
Cumulative amount of time required to fill customers order = 17250 x 1.5 = 25875
Given that standard work year = 2000 hours
Therefore , effective work year with 2 % capacity cushion
= Standard work year x ( 1 – Capacity cushion %/100)
= 2000 x 0.98 = 1960 hours
Number of workers needed by manager
= Cumulative amount of time required to fill customers orders / effective work year
= 25875 / 1960 = 13.20 which is 13 (rounded)
Manager will need 13 workers nex year
