b. Would the total cost be less with full regular production each period with no overtime, but using a subcontractor to handle the excess above regular capacity at a cost of $26 per hundred bolts? Backlogs are not allowed. The inventory carrying cost is $2 per hundred bolts. (Round your Average inventory values to 1 decimal place. Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "O" wherever required.) The forecast for each week of a four-week schedule is 50 units. The MPS rule is to schedule production if the projected on-hand inventory would be negative without it. Customer orders (committed) are follows: Use a production lot size of 75 units and no beginning inventory. Determine the available-to-promise (ATP) quantities for each period.
