Chapter 15, Problem 7P
a)
Summary Introduction
To decide: What actions to be taken immediately, in case 1,000 finished lamps are required in week 5 and 1,500 finished lamps are required in week 6, given the “parts explosion”, the inventory on hand of finished lamps and parts and lead times as shown below.
b)
Summary Introduction
To calculate the total assembly time required, given that it takes 15 minutes to assemble the parts into the frame and 5 minutes to assemble the shade and frame into a finished lamp.
c)
Summary Introduction
To find out the changes in the material plan, if the lead time of assembly of lamps is extended from one week to two weeks.
