Answer: 40 Seconds.
Cycle Time
Cycle time is the time between production of two successive units. It is the time a single unit takes to produce from start to finish.
Cycle Time = Available Time / Demand rate per day
Cycle time = 600/900 = 2/3 minute
When we convert 2/3 minutes into seconds we get; (2/3) × 60 = 40 seconds.
So the Cycle time is 40 seconds which means it takes 40 seconds to produce a single unit.
