There are for 103 units of product A in period 8 and 200 units of product Q
Question:
There are for 103 units of product A in period 8 and 200 units of product Q in period 7. The on hand inventory levels for each item are A = 18, Q =6, B = 10, C = 20, D = 0 and E = 30. A safety stock of five units is maintained on product A and six on units of product Q with no safety stock on other components. Additionally, ten units of 18 units on hand of product A are already allocated to particular customers. There are no open orders (scheduled receipts) on any item. The lot size for items A, Q, B, and C is the same as the net requirements (lot-for-lot ordering), while the lot size for D is 200 units and for E is 500 units.
Develop an MRP for product A and Q with the product structures (BOM) given below. What should be the size of the orders for each item, and when should orders released?
