You Make the Call-Situation 1
The owner of two pizza restaurants in a city with a population of 150,000 is studying her firm's operations to be sure the firm is functioning as efficiently as possible. About 70 percent of the firm's sales represent dine-in business, and 30 percent come from deliveries. The owner has always attempted to produce a good-quality product and minimize the waiting time of customers both on- and off premises.
