With the expansion, what is the new Actual Output?What is the bakery's new utilization? What is the bakery's current new efficiency? Based on the number of incoming Freshmen for Fall 2024, it has been determined that there is a need to increase roll production from 1 oven to 2 ovens. With this capacity increase, they expected to have a new output of 130,000 rolls. With this upgrade, the University wants to determine their capacity of ovens and how well they are utilizing the expansion. The goal of the project is still to increase the overall efficiency of the roll baking process. Please see the provided information below:
