## Material Requirements Planning (MRP) Schedule

### ITEM ID: End Item P0 - L10

An MRP schedule is an essential tool for planning and controlling the materials needed in a manufacturing process. Below is an MRP schedule that outlines data and projections over a 7-period timeline:

### Parameters:
- **Lot Size Min/EOQ:** 700 units
- **Lead Time (LT):** 2 periods

### Time-phased data:

| Period | 1  | 2  | 3  | 4  | 5  | 6  | 7  |
|--------|----|----|----|----|----|----|----|
| **Gross Requirements** | 60 | 60 | 150 | 170 | 150 | 270 | 120 |
| **Scheduled Receipts** |    | 700|    |    |    |    |    |
| **Projected On-hand Inventory** | 700 |    |    |    |    |    |    |
| **Net Requirements** |    |    |    |    |    |    |    |
| **Planned Order Receipts** |    |    |    |    |    |    |    |
| **Planned Order Releases** |    |    |    |    |    |    |    |

### Explanation of Columns:

1. **Gross Requirements:** Shows the demand for the item in each period.
2. **Scheduled Receipts:** Displays already planned orders due to be received in specific periods. In this example, 700 units are scheduled for receipt in Period 2.
3. **Projected On-hand Inventory:** Initial projected inventory on hand is 700 units.
4. **Net Requirements:** Determined by subtracting Projected On-hand Inventory and Scheduled Receipts from Gross Requirements, adjusted by lead time and EOQ policies.
5. **Planned Order Receipts:** The planned amount of inventory to be received in each period.
6. **Planned Order Releases:** Orders that need to be released taking lead time into consideration.

### Key Terms:
- **EOQ:** Economic Order Quantity, the optimal order quantity that minimizes total inventory holding costs and ordering costs.
- **Lead Time (LT):** The time taken from placing an order to its delivery.
  
Understanding and managing these numbers help in ensuring that the inventory is optimized, avoiding stockouts, and minimizing holding costs.
