Using Toyota's formula, you are trying to determine the number of parts per kanban. Here is what you know. Demand for the part is 300 units per hour. The lead time is 45 minutes and there are 6 kanban cards. If you employ a safety factor of 20%, what are the number of parts in each kanban.?

45

Explanation:

The formula to compute the number of parts is shown below:

= Demand * lead time * (1 + safety factor) : kanban cards

= 300 units * 45 minutes * (1 + 20%) : 6

= 300 * 0.75 hours * 1.2 : 6

= 45

The 45 minutes would be 0.75 hours i. e 45 minutes : 60 minutes = 0.75 hours.

So we consider all the components which are given in the question. Hence, all the information is relevant
