Unfortunately, without any information provided about the specific time data given in the order information, it is impossible to calculate the delivery cycle time. Therefore, none of the answer choices are appropriate for this question. Throughput time = Process time + Inspection time + Move time + Queue time
= 1.0 hours + 0.4 hours + 3.2 hours + 5.1 hours = 9.7 hours
Delivery cycle time = Wait time + Throughput time
= 28.0 hours + 9.7 hours = 37.7 hours
