The following product structure tree indicates the components needed to assemble one unit of product W. Determine the quantities of each component needed to assemble 100 units of W.
Refer to this product tree: A hierarchical diagram that depicts the subassemblies and components that are needed to produce and/or assemble a product P.P requires 2 components of A, 3 components of B and 4 components C. A further requires 3 components of M and 4 components of N. B further requires 4 components of C and 5components of D. If 1000 Ps are needed, and on-hand inventory consists of 200 Ps and 100 each of all other components and subassemblies, how many Cs are needed? Multiple Choice 9200 3200 12300 12200 3100
