Answer:
(a) Station 3
(b) 2,700/month
Explanation:
In order to receive the finished product, it must go through all the processes. No one process can be skipped, as the final product would not be completed.
The slowest process in this case is refer to as the bottleneck, as it is the point where it stops the production line from going further. Hence, at station 3 units are being slowed down and no further units can be produced.
As the slowest processing station is station 3 and the whole project of producing the final product is determined by the slowest process. Therefore, the maximum output produced is 2,700/month.
