1 For the plan presented in the table below, it has been shown that76 workers in 22 days have produced 245 products. Suppose the numbers of working days available for January, February March April, May and June respectively are 20, 24, 18, 26, 22, and 15; which of the pure strategies would adopted for the execution of this plan? t Forecast D Other production planning parameters 780 Production costs - $15/unit 2 640 Inventory holding costs -$80/unit 3 900 Hiring costs - 5500/worker 4 1200 Firing costs = $1000/worker 5 2000 Number of workers = 300 2000 Production rate/worker = 25/period Starting inventory 500 and ending inventory - 600 6 1 The forecasts below is for a particular planning horizon, suppose overtime (OT) period is allowed for meeting demand that could not be met in the regular production time (RT). Your Chief Executive has asked you to prepare an aggregate plan that will keep both the number of workforce and the inventory level constant. Show how you would accomplish this task. t Forecast D.
