Consider the assembly line below. The three fabrication operations run in parallel, such that each batch of 20 units only needs to go through one of the three fabrication operations

The units are packaged and made ready for shipment in the final stage.

What is the throughput time per batch of this operation?
A) 88 min.
B) 8 min.
