A final assembly (A) requires one week to assemble and has a component part (B) requiring two
weeks to fabricate. Three units of final assembly A and four units of part B are currently on hand.
The gross requirements for assembly A for the next 10 weeks are as follows (one part B is used on
each A):
a. What are the planned order releases for part B using lot-for-lot lot sizing for both parts A and B?
b. What are the planned order releases for part B using POQ=2 for both parts A and B?
The resource profile for the frame is as follows:
\table[[Item,Work Center,Setup Hours,Run Hours/Unit,Lead Time],[Frame,200,4,1.5,0 weeks],[Part A,300,3,1.0,1 week],[Part B,300,3,.8,1 week],[Part C,400,2,1.2,2 weeks],[Part D,500,2,1.0,1 week]]
Determine the capacity requirements for all work centers, assuming all usages are one, and that a new setup is required each week at each work center.
