Chapter $14($pp$.580-581)$: Problems $14\mathrm{.}2,14\mathrm{.}3$B$,14\mathrm{.}9,$ and $14\mathrm{.}13$C

$14\mathrm{.}2$You are expected to have the gift bags in Problem $14\mathrm{.}1$ ready at $5$ p$.$m$.$ However, you need to personalize the items $($monogrammed pens, note pads, literature from the printer, etc.$).$ The lead time is $1$ hour to assemble $200$ Js once the other items are prepared. The other items will take a while as well. Given the volunteers you have, the other time estimates are item K $(2$ hours$),$ item L $(1$ hour$),$ and item M $(4$ hours$).$ Develop a time$-$phased assembly plan to prepare the gift bags. $14\mathrm{.}3$ As the production planner for Xiangling Hu Products, Inc., you have been given a bill of material for a bracket that is made up of a base, two springs, and four clamps. The base is assembled from one clamp and two housings. Each clamp has one handle and one casting. Each housing has two bearings and one shaft. There is no inventory on hand. Determine the gross quantities needed of each item if you are to assemble $50$ brackets.
