But I want to know why do we do it that way because If I have a similar question do I always multiply item A's order release for week 3 by 2, week 5 (Item A's order releases x 2 + Item B's order releases x 1), and and week 6 (Item A's order releases x 2 ) I want to understand why we do that so I can anwser a similar question I don't understand why we do that have way just that you did it that wayarrow_forwardTable B shows a partially completed MPS record for ball Develop the MPS for ball Four customer orders arrived in the following sequences (Table B).

Madam Rabiatul wants to use the loss method to write down inventory because it is more clearly discloses the decline in the net realisable value and does not distort the cost of goods sold. But, Mr. Zaman prefers the cost-of-goods-sold method to write down because it does not call attention to the decline in net realizable value.
