GCSE Business Studies/What is Production?
the methods of production are the types o production which is used I different scenarios. The methods are:Job production, where items are made individually and each item is finished before the next one is started. Designer dresses are made using the job production method.
Batch production, where groups of items are made together. Each batch is finished before starting the next block of goods. For example, a baker first produces a batch of 50 white loaves. Only after they are completed will he or she start baking 50 loaves of brown bread.
Flow production, where identical, standardised items are produced on an assembly line. Most cars are mass-produced in large factories using conveyor belts and expensive machinery such as robot arms. Workers have specialised jobs, for instance, fitting wheels.
