The output of the equipment on Day 6 can be calculated by multiplying the demonstrated capacity,
the utilization, and the efficiency. The demonstrated capacity is given as $1,200 per day. The
utilization is the ratio of the actual time that the equipment is used to the available time that it could
be used. Since the utilization is reduced by 25% on Day 6, it means that the equipment is used for
75% of the available time. Therefore, the utilization is 0.75. The efficiency is the ratio of the actual
output to the standard output. It is given as 110%, which means that the equipment produces 10%
more than the standard output. Therefore, the efficiency is 1.1. The output on Day 6 can be found by
multiplying these three factors:
Output = Demonstrated capacity x Utilization x Efficiency Output = $1,200 x 0.75 x 1.1 Output = $990
Therefore, the output on Day 6 is $990. Reference: CPIM Part 2 Exam Content Manual, Version 7.0,
