Reduced set-up time is crucial too, don’t overlook it!

All of the above makes sense to me!

I think reduced scrap rate is also a big deal.

Wait, can all those really be consequential? Seems like a stretch.

Definitely reduced cycle time!

I'm leaning towards option D, but I’m a bit confused about whether all of them really fit as consequential metrics.

I feel like we had a practice question similar to this, and I think all of those options could be valid.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think reduced scrap rate could also be a consequential metric.

I remember we discussed how reducing costs often leads to improvements in other areas, like cycle time.

This is a tricky one. I'll have to think it through step-by-step. The primary metric is cost reduction, so the consequential metric should be something that's affected by that. I'll go with reduced cycle time.

I'm not totally confident on this one. I'll have to guess and hope I get it right. Reduced cycle time seems like the most logical choice, but I'm not 100% sure.

Okay, I've got this. The consequential metric should be something that's impacted by the reduced cost for process A. Reduced cycle time, scrap rate, or set-up time would all make sense as follow-on metrics.

Hmm, I'm a bit unsure about this one. I need to think through the relationship between the primary and consequential metrics. Let me re-read the question carefully.

This seems like a straightforward question. I'll focus on the key information - the primary metric is reduced cost for process A, so the consequential metric should be something related to that.

Reduced cycle time seems like a logical choice, as it's often a key driver for cost reduction.

I agree with Dorethea, reducing cost for process A could lead to improvements in all those areas.
