Problem 11-19 Prepare a master production schedule for industrial pumps in the manner of the following table.

Use the MPS rule to "schedule production when the projected on-hand inventory would be less than 10 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 Initial Inventory = 60 Forecast Custom er orders (committ ed) Projecte d onhand inventory MPS ATP 1 2 3 4 5 6 July 7 8

Problem 11-3 Planners for a company that makes several models of skateboards are about to prepare the aggregate plan that will cover six periods. They have assembled the following information: Period Forecast 1 200 2 200 3 300 4 400 5 500 6 200 Total 1,800

Costs Output Regular time Overtime Subcontract Inventory

= $ 2 per skateboard = $ 3 per skateboard = $ 6 per skateboard per skateboard per period on average = $1 inventory

Back orders

= $ 5 per skateboard per period

They have learned that one person is about to retire from the company. Rather than replace that person, they would like to stay with the smaller workforce and use overtime to make up for the lost output. The reduced regular-time output is 280 units per period. The maximum amount of overtime output per period is 40 units. are allowed per period. Subcontracting is $6 per unit, and overtime is $3 per unit. (Hint: Use Suppose you can use a combination of overtime and subcontracting, but you cannot use subcontracting in more than two periods. Up to 50 units of subcontracting and either 0 or 40 units of overtime subcontracting only when overtime units are not sufficient to decrease backlogs to 80 units or less.) Plan for an ending inventory balance of 0 for period 6. Prepare a plan that will minimize total cost. (Negative amounts should be indicated by a minus sign. Leave no cells blank - be certain to enter "0" wherever required. Omit the "$" sign in your response.)

Hint:Redo table and use subcontracting when overtime is not sufficient, on the basis that subcontracting is more expensive than overtime.

Will you please write the answer on the box. Dont leave the answer blank just write 0 Problem 12-17 The MRP Department has a problem. Its computer died just as it spit out the following information:Planned order release for item J27 = 640 units in week 2. The firm has been able to reconstruct all the information they lost except the master schedule for end item 565. The firm is fortunate because J27 is used only in 565s. Given the following product structure tree and associated inventory status record information, determine what master schedule entry for 565 was exploded into the material requirements plan that killed the computer.
