The documentation on workcenters is a little confusing to me. 

In my scenario I'm mixing powder. My mixer will handle 250 lbs and my finished 
product is 8 lbs. Does that mean I put in 32 (250/8) under capacity per cycle? 
Or do I put in 1 because I have 1 machine and increase the other values using 
the Effective Time mentioned below.

In the equation below what is C? 

Is that supposed to be = ET and not + TN_ * ET? How do I come up with the ET to 
then multiple the other fields by? 

Here is what the documentation says:

"Effective time (ET): is a factor that is applied to the three times above to 
determine the real production time. This factor enables you to readjust the 
different times progressively and as a measure of machine utilization. You 
can’t readjust the other times because generally they’re taken from the 
machine’s data sheet.

The total time for carrying out X operations is then given by the following 
formula: ((C / CA) * TC + TS + TN_ * ET. In this formula the result of the 
division is rounded upwards. Then if the capacity per cycle is 6 it takes 3 
cycles to realize 15 operations."
