Q: There are four employees at a fast-food restaurant. Each employee performs ALL four activities related to serving a customer: greet customer, take order, process order, and deliver order. The processing time for each activity is given as follows:
Activity Processing time per customer
Greet customer 2 seconds
Take order 30 seconds
Process order 60 seconds
Deliver order 5 seconds
Assume demand is unlimited. If each employee is paid $7.50 per hour, what is the cost of direct labor associated with serving one customer?
