Discussion
Statement I: The slowest stage in a line sets the throughput of the whole plant.
Statement II: Capacity provided at any other stage cannot be used beyond that limit.
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer.
Answer: D
Correct answer: Both Statement I and Statement II are correct
Statement II is the consequence of statement I. The slowest stage sets the throughput, and every other stage is then limited to that rate - so capacity installed elsewhere earns nothing until the bottleneck is relieved. This is why line balancing is a capital question, not merely an operating one.
