Week 8:

The gross requirement is 150 (1 assembly) derived from planned order release of C and K. The on hand inventory is 0. Hence, the net requirement is 150. The lead time is 1 week. Therefore, the planned order release will be 150 in week 7 which will be the planned order receipt in week 8.

Week 9:

The gross requirement is 300 (1 assembly) derived from planned order release of C. The on hand inventory is 0. Hence, the net requirement is 300. The lead time is 1 week. Therefore, the planned order release will be 300 in week 8 which will be the planned order receipt in week 9.

Model File Available: Download NBAGIMS.xlsx The Iowa Wolves are scheduled to play against the Maine Red Claws in an upcoming game in the National Basketball Association (NBA) G League. Because a player in the NBA G League is still developing his skills, the number of points he scores in a game can vary substantially. Develop a spreadsheet model that simulates the points scored by each team. Assume that each player's point production can be represented as an integer uniform variable with the ranges provided in the following table. (Use at least 1,000 trials.) Player Iowa Wolves Maine Red Claws 1 [5, 20] [6, 12] 2 [7, 20] [15, 20] 3 [5, 10] [10, 20] 4 [10, 40] [15, 30] 5 [7, 20] [6, 10] 6 [2, 10] [1, 20] 7 [2, 5] [1, 4] 8 [2,4] [2,4] (a) Consider the points scored by the Iowa Wolves team.

The wedding date for a couple is quickly approaching, and the wedding planner must provide the caterer an estimate of how many people will attend the reception so that the appropriate quantity of food is prepared for the buffet. The following table contains information on the number of RSVP guests for the 145 invitations. Unfortunately, the number of guests does not always correspond to the number of RSVPed guests. Based on her experience, the wedding planner knows it is extremely rare for guests to attend a wedding if they notified that they will not be attending. Therefore, the wedding planner will assume that no one from these 50 invitations will attend. The wedding planner estimates that the each of the 25 guests planning to come solo has a 74% chance of attending alone, a 20% chance of not attending, and a 6% chance of bringing a companion. For each of the 60 RSVPs who plan to bring a companion, there is a 90% chance that they will attend with a companion, a 4% chance of attending…
