A is made of 3 units of component M and 2 units of component N; and B is made of 2 units of component N and 2 units of component X. On-hand inventories for subassemblies and components are 80 units of A, 35 units of B, and 60 units of N. Scheduled receipts are 30 units of A at the beginning of week 1, and 110 units of N at the beginning of week 2. Lead times are one week for subassemblies and two weeks for all components. Final Assembly of Frequires one week. 1. Construct a product structure tree (i.e., a BOM chart). (4 marks) Answer: 2.

Calculate the total inventory cost for the fixed order quantity in Question 6. The per order fixed cost is still $50/order, and the unit holding cost is still $1 per item per week. Determine if the policy of fixed order quantity is better than the policy of lot-for-lot in the 8-week period. (Hint: Compare the total inventory costs for two policies to see which one is smaller.)
