Anticipated demands for a five-period planning horizon are 14, 3, 0, 26, 15. Current starting inventory is four units, and the inventory manager would like to have eight units on hand at the end of the planning horizon. Assume that h = 1 and K = 30. Find the optimal production schedule. (Hint: Modify the first and the last period’s demands to account for starting and ending inventories.)
Suppose we are formulating a Master Production Schedule (MPS) for an item. Week O projected on-
hand is 83 units. The lot-size policy for this item calls for L4L ordering. Lead time for this item is one
week. There are no safety stock requirements.
Here are the demand forecast and the booked orders for this item .

A kite manufacturer produces the most popular model, the Long kite. Suppose that there are currently 10
long Kites in inventory and that there are customer orders that have been committed and must be filled.
Suppose that a production lot size of 100 long kites is used. Prepare a master production schedule for the

Hyer Company is ready to decide on her sales and oper- ations plan for next year. The firm's single product (known throughout the adult puzzle trade as "Hyer's Hexagon") is "red hot," according to the VP of marketing, so she insists that backorders are not acceptable next year.
