The BOM for product A is shown in Figure 11.40, and datafrom the inventory records are shown in Table 11.9. In theMPS for product A, the MPS start row has 100 units in week 3and 200 in week 6. Develop the material requirements planfor the next 6 weeks for items C, D, and E.a. Develop the material requirements plan for the next6 weeks for items C, D, and E.b. What specific managerial actions are required inweek 1?
The monthly usage for a component supplied to an assembly plant is 3,400 parts. There are 21 working days in the month and the effective operating time of the plant is 450 min per day. Currently, the defect rate for the component is 1.2%, and the equipment used to produce the part is down for repairs an average of 18 min per day. Determine the takt time for this part.
Consider a line consisting of only one machine. This machine takes on average 4 minutes (te=4 min) to complete a job and Ca2=Ce2=1. The arrival rate of the parts to this machine is 1/8 part/minutes. Assume that there is enough space for only 5 parts between the machines (Hint: the buffer size, b, is 5.) Compute the expected CT of this production line. CT=_________
A company makes two kinds of door Knobs, standard and deluxe ,the making process cost the company 15$ for the standard and 20$ for the deluxe by making on a grinder and a smoother machines, which they can be run for at most 80 hours a week, each standard one needs 2 hours on the grinder, and 4 hours on the smoother, and each deluxe one needs 4 hours on the grinder and 3 hours on the smoother ,the company sales at 25$,35$ for the standard and the deluxe respectively. To have the profit it wants the company decide to make at least 15 knobs from them at a week, formulate the linear programming model?

A machine makes two components; call them types A and B. It takes 250 seconds to switch production between the component types. During that time, no production occurs. When in production, each unit of A or B requires 0.5 second to be completed. The two components, A and B, are combined in an assembly process to make a final product; call it C. The assembly step can combine the two components into 1 unit every 2 seconds, or 30 units per minute. Assume there is ample demand. Suppose the machine rotates between one batch of 1,000 units of A and 1,000 units of B. What is the average inventory of B components? answer:______units
18. A production process consists of a three-step operation. The scrap rate is 10 percent for the first step and 6 percent for the other two steps. If the scrap rate for each step could be cut in half, how many units would this save in terms of the scrap allowance?
An emergency situation has arisen in the milling department, because the ship carrying a certain quantity of a required part from an overseas supplier sank on Friday evening. A certain number of machines in the department must therefore be dedicated to the production of this part during the next week. A total of 1000 of these parts must be produced, and the production cycle time per part = 16.0 min. Each milling machine used for this rush job must first be set up, which takes 5.0 hr. A scrap rate of 2% can be expected. Assume availability = 100%. (a)If the production week consists of 10 shifts at 8.0 hr/shift, how many machines will be required? (b)It so happens that only two milling machines can be spared for this emergency job, due to other priority jobs in the department. To cope with the emergency situation, plant management has authorized a three-shift operation for six days next week. Can the 1000 replacement parts be completed within these constraints?
