Refer to Problem 12. Assume that unusually mild weather has caused a change in the quantity and timing of orders for golf carts. The revised plan calls for 100 golf carts at the start of week 6, 100 at the start of week 8, and 100 at the start of week 9.
a. Develop a master
b. Determine the timing and quantities for orders for tops and bases.
c. Assume that equipment problems reduce the firm's capacity for assembling bases to 50 units per week. Revise your material plan for bases to reflect this, but still meet delivery dates.

- Describe the differences among planned orders, released orders, and firm planned orders. Whocontrols each?arrow_forwardProblem 21-16 (Algo) One unit of A is composed of two units of B and three units of C. Each B is composed of one unit of F. C is made of one unit of D, one unit of E, and two units of F. Items A, B, C, and D have 20, 50, 30, and 25 units of on-hand inventory. Items A, B, and C use lot-for-lot (L4L) as their lot-sizing technique, while D, E, and F require multiples of 50, 100, and 90, respectively, to be purchased. B has scheduled receipts of 20 units in Period 1. No other scheduled receipts exist. Lead times are one period for Items A, B, and D, and two periods for Items C, E, and F. Gross requirements for A are 20 units in Period 1, 10 units in Period 2, 55 units in Period 6, and 50 units in Period 8. Find the planned order releases for all items.

- Can you assist me with Problem 5arrow_forwardProblem 9-11 (Algo) Assume that Product Z is made of two units of A and three units of B. A is made of three units of C and four of D. D is made of two units of E. Lead times for purchase or fabrication of each unit to final assembly are: Z takes two weeks; A, B, C, and D take one week each; and E takes three weeks. Fifty five units of Product Z are required in Period 10. (Assume that there is currently no inventory on-hand of any of these items.) b.
