solution

You are product planner for product A (in Problem 14.14 and Figure 14.14). The field service manager, Al Trostel, has just called and told you that the requirements for B and F should each be increased by 10 units for his repair requirements in the field.

a) Prepare a list showing the quantity of each part required to produce the requirements for the service manager and the production request of 10 Bs and Fs.

b) Prepare a net requirement plan by date for the new requirements (for both production and field service), assuming that the field service manager wants his 10 units of B and F in week 6 and the 10 production units of A in week 8.

Problem 14.14 and Figure 14.14

A part structure, lead time (weeks), and on-hand quantities for product A are shown in Figure 14.14. From the information shown, generate:

a) An indented bill of material for product A (see Figure 5.9 in Chapter 5 as an example of a BOM).

b) Net requirements for each part to produce 10 As in week 8 using lot-for-lot.
