MRP A

Use the information below to work the problems in this section. Read the instructions in each section that follows fully and carefully.

Each X is made of $2$Y and $1$Z

Each Y is made of $3$A and B

Each Z is made of $5$A and C

We will ignore scheduling B and C

Inventory information is as follows:

A

Lot size $25,000$

On hand $16,000$

Safety stock $1,000$

Allocated $2,000$

Lead time $1$

Regardless of what you calculated earlier, for Y$,$ use planned order releases of $3,000$ in periods $1-5.$ For Z$,$ use planned order releases of $3,000$ in periods $2,3,4,5,$ and $8.$ Neither of these is the correct answer. In addition, use the revised values of X $($given for Y$)$ in your calculations.

Why am I giving you this changed information? Without this, if you made a mistake in any of the earlier grids, all the remaining grids would automatically be incorrect. As a result, you would get very few points on the actual exam.
