Expert Solution

1. Classify each activity as unit level, batch level, product level, or facility level

Answer:


Grinding	Unit level
Polishing	Unit level
Product modification	Product level
Providing power	Facility level
System calibration	Batch level

Explanation:

The unit level means that the activity happens each time, when a product is manufactured. Here, grinding and polishing comes under unit level. Because grinding and polishing happens each time a product is manufactured.

Product level means that the activity that support the entire product line but not compulsory or necessary for each individual product. Product modification comes under product level. It is because product modification is not necessary for each product, but supports the entire product line if needed.

Facility level means that the activity that required for development and the production to happen. Providing power comes under facility level. Because, the providing power is needed for the production to happen.

Batch level means that the activity is performed, all the time a batch of product is produced. System calibration comes under batch level activity. System calibration is a quality measurement for system. So, when a batch of products is produced batch level activity happens.
