- I understand that as per the calculations, the gross requirement for week 3 is 50 (25*2) (Item A's order releases), week 5 is 190 (20*2) + (150*1) (Item A's order releases + Item B's order releases), and week 6 is 300 (150*2) (Item A's order releases). But I want to know why do we do it that way because If I have a similar question do I always multiply item A's order release for week 3 by 2, week 5 (Item A's order releases x 2 + Item B's order releases x 1), and and week 6 (Item A's order releases x 2 ) I want to understand why we do that so I can anwser a similar question I don't understand why we do that have way just that you did it that wayarrow_forwardPrepare a master schedule based on the following information: Week 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 Forecast 500 500 600 600 750 750 900 800 Orders 540 470 325 200 105 45 10 0 Currently there are 700 units in inventory.

- At the Lebanese factory "DELCO", John is using a system to produce the bar codes attached on the product bulks for identification. Each bulk contains 100 units of a certain product, and all the information related to the products inside the bulk are then represented by the barcode. Once prepared, the bulks are transferred to a very large warehouse and the location of each one is entered on the system. At a later stage, John uses the barcode in the warehouse to identify the right bulks for delivery, after being scanned using a special wireless barcode scanner. This way, John can decide in a better way how and when to make the shipments. This system helps John to save time and minimize the errors, and to perform his daily work in the most efficient way. On the other side, "DELCO" is facing a problem of late delivery to customers. In fact, dealing with hundreds of suppliers, wholesalers, and agents around the world makes this process very complicated.

It is mid-August, and Mr. Stockman is wondering how many units of a new multi-function smart bracelet to order for the upcoming holiday season (November and December). The Malaysian manufacturer of this item, TechToys, requires orders to be placed in late August for delivery in late October, in time for holiday sales. Based on past experience with similar products, Mr. Stockman believes that the holiday demand (Nov-Dec) for the bracelet is Normally distributed with a mean of 3,000 units and standard deviation of 900. TechToys sells the item to SI at a unit price of $ 145 per unit, and SI has decided to set the retail price at $ 200 during the regular selling season (Nov-Dec). At the end of December, SI will mark down the price by 50% (i.e., sell the item for $ 100) to sell off any left-over items. TechToys incurs a cost of $ 105 per unit to manufacture this bracelet.
