Prepare a master schedule given this information:
It is now the end of week 1; customer orders are 25 for week 2, 16 for week 3, 11 for week 4, 8 for week 5, and 3 for week 6. Use the MPS rule of ordering production when projected on-hand inventory would be negative without production. Suppose that a production lot size of 70 pumps is used. (Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required.)
| June | July | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 64 | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 |
| Forecast | 30 | 30 | 30 | 30 | 40 | 40 | 40 | 40 |
| Customer orders (committed) | 33 | 25 | 16 | 11 | 8 | 3 | ||
| Projected on-hand inventory | ||||||||
| MPS | ||||||||
| ATP |
These are the answers:
| Particulars | June 1 | June 2 | June 3 | June 4 | July 5 | July 6 | July 7 | July 8 |
| Inventory | 64 | 31 | 1 | 41 | 11 | 41 | 1 | 31 |
| Forecast | 30 | 30 | 30 | 30 | 40 | 40 | 40 | 40 |
| Customer orders | 33 | 25 | 16 | 11 | 8 | 3 | - | - |
| Projected on hand inventory (See Note 1) | 31 | 1 | 41 | 11 | 41 | 1 | 31 | 61 |
| MPS (See Note 1) | - | - | 70 | - | 70 | - | 70 | 70 |
| ATP (See Note 2) | 6 | - | 43 | - | 59 | - | 70 | 70 |
I just need how the ATP was arrived. Please do explain to me.
Thank you.
