days a year. Due to difference in TVs demands and its production, LED filaments are only produced in
batches of 2,000 units. Your are required to estimate;
Annual production of LED filament batches in numbers
b. Starting with zero inventory, if usage and production remains the same what would be the inventory
levels after 76 hrs.
Calculate average inventory levels when each production cycle starts with zero inventory.
d. The same equipment that is used to make the LED filaments could also be used to make another
filament used in the firm's other products. That job would require four days, including setup time.
Setup time for making a batch of the LED filament…
