I would like to know how to account for a machine that is broken and unable to produce for an extended period of time.
We have 5 machines and one is going to take a week or more to repair: does this mean that my "Availability" is straight away reduced by 20%, or do I ignore it completely?
I want to ignore the machine and take it out of the system - my bosses say there are financial considerations (depreciation etc.) to take into account. Further, if the machine is not recording a downtime, how do we justify (show) decreased production further up the management ladder?
