2. Assuming zero inventories on hand, how many Zs are needed to produce 90 units of R?

3. If the finished product R takes 2 weeks to assemble, the subassemblies S and Q take 3 weeks, and the components K, L, M, X, and Z take 1 week, when should the order for Z be released if 90 units of R are required by week 8?
