- aw 11 Assume you are the manager of Assembly, Inc. You have just received an order for 29 units of an industrial robot, which is to be delivered at the start of week 7 of your schedule. Using the following information, determine how many units of subassembly G to order and the timing of those orders, given that subassembly G must be ordered in multiples of 80 units and all other components are ordered lot-for-lot.

Item C has a lead time of one week; items A, B, E, and F have two-week lead times; and item D has a lead time of three weeks. Lot-for-lot (L4L) lot sizing is used for items C, E, and F; lots of size 20, 40, and 160 are used for items A, B, and D, respectively. Items A, B, D, and E have on-hand (beginning) inventories of 5, 10, 100, and 100, respectively; all other items have zero beginning inventories. We are scheduled to receive 10 units of A in week 3, 20 units of B in week 7, 40 units of F in week 5, and 60 units of E in week 2; there are no other scheduled receipts. If 20 units of A are required in week 10, use the low-level-coded bill-of-materials (product structure tree) to find thenecessary planned order releases for all components.Culinary Creations caters weddings, office parties, and the like.
