Chapter 11, Problem 14P
Product A is made from components B and C. Item B, in turn, is made from D and E. Item C also is an intermediate item, made from F and H. Finally, intermediate item E is made from H and G. Note that item H has two parents. The following are item lead times:
- What lead time (in weeks) is needed to respond to a customer order for product A, assuming no existing inventories or
scheduled receipts? - What is the customer response time if all purchased items (i.e., D, F, G, and H) are in inventory?
- If you are allowed to keep just one purchased item in stock, which one would you choose?

Upton Enterprises produces a variety of switches. Below, you will find a bill-of-material file for their simplest switch: Part A. The number in the parentheses represents the number of units required for the upper level. LT stands for the lead time, measured in weeks.Assuming that Upton Enterprises has none of Switch A in inventory, and the inventory levels of Parts B, C, D, E, and F are also zero, how many weeks would it take to produce 100 units of Switch A? __________

Over the last 6 months the large-sized lawn and garden inventory (ie, tables, chairs, planters, etc.) has appeared to be short. The inventory records that employees use to determine what is on hand show that more inventory is available than can actually be located. This has cause frustration and mis-trust in the inventory records for the sales employees. The owner realizes that the problem is bigger than just frustrated employees. He is afraid that inventory is being stolen, a problem he didn't think possible given that these are large items that are not easily moved. Requirements: Provide the owner with two internal controls that he could implement to reduce the likelihood of theft of the lawn and garden inventory.arrow_forwardMpho is an avid seamstress and want to sew and sell high quality, reusable designer face masks during the current Covid-19 pandemic.

- Annin Laboratories uses the weighted-average method to account for its work-in-process inventories. The accounting records show the following information for February: Beginning WIP inventory Direct materials $ 26,553 Conversion costs 8,605 Current period costs Direct materials 159,792 Conversion costs 82,020 Quantity information is obtained from the manufacturing records and includes the following: Beginning inventory 6,000 units (40% complete as to materials, 15% complete as to conversion) Current period units started 45,200 units Ending inventory 23,000 units (75% complete as to materials, 35% complete as to conversion) Required: Compute the equivalent units for the materials and conversion cost calculations. Compute the cost per equivalent unit for direct materials and conversion costs.arrow_forwardThe sales department receives all orders from the customers. While receiving the order, the sales team authorizes the payment and check line items. If authorization is failed, a cancelation message is sent to the customer. On the other hand, each line item is checked with the stock. If it is in stock, assigned to the order otherwise the item is removed from the list. If stocks are available for all products and payment is authorized, the sales team dispatched the order.Shipping teams ship the order to the customer. The method of delivery is decided conditionally. Depending on the condition either the Urgent Delivery activity or the Regular Delivery activity is performed. The delivery procedure is finished when the customer receives it and signs in. Draw an Activity diagram based on the above scenario.arrow_forwardExplain problem areas in inventory management. The problems are circled in the flowchart below:arrow_forward
