2. Suppose a company needs to assemble 100 units of product A in week 4, 300 units in week 6, and 200 units in week 10. Items that are assembled are sent immediately to customers after they are assembled. To assemble product A, three units of item B, and two units of item C are needed (item B and C go directly into A on the assembly line). The lead times, on-hand, and scheduled receipts for items B and C are shown below. Assignment Assuming the company wants to keep inventory as low as possible, complete the following MRP schedules for items B and C. Item A- Master Assembly Schedule Week 3 4 10 11 12 Quantity 100 300 200 Item B - Lead Time = 2 weeks Week 3 5 10 11 12 Gross requirements On-hand 40 Scheduled receipts 5 Net requirements Planned order release Item C - Lead Time = 3 weeks Week 2 3 4 6 10 11 12 Gross requirements On-hand 400 Scheduled receipts 20 Net requirements Planned order release

Updike Upholstery cuts and sews fabric for customordered chairs, ottomans, and sofas. Often, the more com-plicated patterns are for the smaller pieces, where cuttingis more time consuming than sewing. Thus, cutting andsewing times vary. Today’s list of jobs, shown below, arefor an important customer who needs them shipped out(in one shipment) as soon as possible. Determine thesequence of jobs that will complete the customer’s orderas quickly as possible, and notify the customer when theorder is expected to ship.
Use the assignment method to obtain a plan that will minimize the processing costs inthefollowing table under the following conditions: a. The combination 2-D is undesirable. b. The combinations 1-A and 2-D are undesirable.
One approach that can be effective in reducing the impact of production bottlenecks in a job shopor batch operations setting is to use smaller lot sizes.a. What is the impact of a production bottleneck?b. Explain how small lot sizes can reduce the impact of bottleneck operations.c. What are the key trade-offs in using small lot sizes for the purpose of reducing the bottleneckeffect?d. In some cases, the location of a bottleneck will shift (i.e., sometimes it is at workstation 3,another time it is at workstation 12). Furthermore, there can be more than one bottleneck operation at the same time. How would these situations impact scheduling using small lot sizes?
