Item C also is an intermediateitem, made from F and H. Finally, intermediate item E ismade from H and G. Note that item H has two parents. Thefollowing are item lead times:a. What lead time (in weeks) is needed to respond to a cus-tomer order for product A, assuming no existing invento-ries or scheduled receipts?b. What is the customer response time if all purchased items(i.e., D, F, G, and H) are in inventory?c.

The base is assembled from 1 clamp and\ 1 housing. Each clamp has 1 handle and 2 castings.Each housing has 1 bearing and 2 shafts.There is no inventory on hand. C) Compute the net quantities needed if there are 25 of the base and 75 of the clamp in stock.

- Explain the concept of Demand Smoothing as part of the level scheduling in manufacturing?arrow_forwardOne unit of A is made of three units of B, one unit of C, and two units of D. B is composed of two units of E and one unit of D. C is made of one unit of B and two units of E. E is made of one unit of F. Items B, C, E, and F have one-week lead times; A and D have lead times of two weeks. Assume that lot-for-lot (L4L) lot sizing is used for Items A, B, and F; lots of size 50, 50, and 175 are used for Items C, D, and E, respectively. Items C, E, and F have on-hand (beginning) inventories of 10, 50, and 160, respectively; all other items have zero beginning inventory. We are scheduled to receive 10 units of A in Week 2, 50 units of E in Week 1, and also 40 units of F in Week 1. There are no other scheduled receipts. If 30 units of A are required in Week 8: a.

C is made of one unit of B and two units of E. E is made of one unit of F. Items B, C, E, and F have one-week lead times; A and D have lead times of two weeks. Assume that lot-for-lot (L4L) lot sizing is used for Items A, B, and F; lots of size 55, 55, and 200 are used for Items C, D, and E, respectively. Items C, E, and F have on-hand (beginning) inventories of 10, 50, and 160, respectively; all other items have zero beginning inventory. We are scheduled to receive 10 units of A in Week 2, 60 units of E in Week 1, and also 50 units of F in Week 1. There are no other scheduled receipts. If 32 units of A are required in Week 8, use the low-level-coded bill of materials to find the necessary planned order releases for all componentsarrow_forward
