Not sure about that, seems off to me.

Efficiency of 115% usually means over the rated capacity.

Wait, how do we even get to these numbers?

Definitely A, 287 hours makes more sense!

I think the rated capacity is 276 hours.

I feel like I should be able to figure this out, but I can’t recall the exact formula we used in class.

I’m really uncertain about the numbers. Is 115% efficiency typical for rated capacity calculations?

I think we had a similar question in practice where we had to find capacity based on efficiency. I might lean towards option C.

I remember we calculated rated capacity using efficiency, but I’m not sure how to apply it here.

This seems pretty simple. If the efficiency is 115%, that means the work center is producing 15% more than its rated capacity. So I just need to find the original rated capacity and then increase it by 15%.

Okay, I think I've got this. If the efficiency is 115%, then the rated capacity must be higher than the actual capacity. I'll need to do some math to figure out the exact number.

Hmm, I'm a bit confused on how to approach this. I know efficiency is related to capacity, but I'm not sure of the exact formula to use here. I'll need to review my notes to figure this out.

This looks like a straightforward calculation based on the given efficiency. I'll need to find the formula to convert the efficiency percentage to the rated capacity.
