OBJECTIVE CORNERSTONE 9.1 CORNERSTONE EXERCISES Cornerstone Exercise 9.1 Calculating Standard Quantities for Actual Production Guillermo's Oil and Lube Company is a service company that offers oil changes and lubrication for automobiles and light trucks. On average, Guillermo has found that a typical oil change takes 24 minutes and 6.2 quarts of oil are used. In June, Guillermo's Oil and Lube had 980 ol changes

Answer 1

We know that 1 quarts = 0.94 litre

So, Standard Quantity of 6.2 quarts = 6.2*0.94 litre = 5.828 litre

As a typical oil change takes 6.2 quarts of oil;

• Standard Quantities for Actual Production of 980 oil changes = 980*5.828 litre = 5711.44 litre Or;
• Standard Quantities for Actual Production of 980 oil changes = 980*6.2 quarts = 6076 quarts.
• and Standard time for actual production will be 980*24 minutes = 23520 minutes i.e. 392 Hours.
