As the production planner for Xiangling Hu Products, Inc., you have been given a bill of material for a bracket that is made up of a base, 1 spring, and 4 clamps. The base is assembled from 1 clamp and 2 housings. Each clamp has 1 handle and 2 castings. Each housing has 2 bearings and 1 shaft. There is no inventory on hand. a) Design a product structure noting the quantities for each item and show the low-level coding. Match each number in the structure below with the corresponding item. Number Item I Spring Subscript left parenthesis 1 right parenthesisSpring(1) II Housing Subscript left parenthesis 2 right parenthesisHousing(2) III Casting Subscript left parenthesis 2 right parenthesisCasting(2) IV Shaft Subscript left parenthesis 1 right parenthesisShaft(1) A rectangle at the top center is labeled Bracket. Three branches originate from this rectangle connect the rectangle to three rectangles. The first rectangle is labeled Base (1), the second rectangle is labeled I, and the third rectangle is labeled Clamp (3). Two branches originate from rectangle Base (1) and connect the rectangle to two other rectangles labeled Clamp (1) and II. Two branches originate from rectangle Clamp (3) and connect the rectangle to two other rectangles labeled Handle (1) and Casting (2). Two branches originate from rectangle Clamp (1) and connect the rectangle to two other rectangles labeled Handle (1) and III. Two branches originate from rectangle II and connect the rectangle to two other rectangles labeled Bearing (2) and IV.

Unitary Method
The word “unitary” comes from the word “unit”, which means a single and complete entity. In this method, we find the value of a unit product from the given number of products, and then we solve for the other number of products.
Speed, Time, and Distance
Imagine you and 3 of your friends are planning to go to the playground at 6 in the evening. Your house is one mile away from the playground and one of your friends named Jim must start at 5 pm to reach the playground by walk. The other two friends are 3 miles away.
Profit and Loss
The amount earned or lost on the sale of one or more items is referred to as the profit or loss on that item.
Units and Measurements
Measurements and comparisons are the foundation of science and engineering. We, therefore, need rules that tell us how things are measured and compared. For these measurements and comparisons, we perform certain experiments, and we will need the experiments to set up the devices.
