Ok, it has been supposed that small business owners really have no need for Lean / Six Sigma. 

Velocity Marketing (my first company) employed 55 sales reps and 7 installers.  As your typical small business owner I have constructed tables as the one below. 

Question: Which job do you take? Supposing the burden rate per hour is the same for each resource (the materials cost is calculated in the burden rate per hour).

                                                                                                For 100 items

                        Job A hrs. required  Job B hrs required   Job A req’s    Job B req’s

Resource X                7                                  5                      700                 500

Resource Y                3                                  6                      300                 600

Resource Z                8                                  7                      800                 700

Sales Value                $100                           $125          $10,000          $12,500

After everyone has had the opportunity to comment I will post another blog
