Question 1 Explanation:
Question 2 |
The demand of a certain part is 1000 parts/year
and its cost is Rs. 1000/part. The orders are placed
based on the economic order quantity (EOQ). The
cost of ordering is Rs. 100/order and the lead time for
receiving the orders is 5 days. If the holding cost is
Rs. 20/part/year, the inventory level for placing the
orders is ________ parts (round off to the nearest
integer).

8 | |
18 | |
22 |
Question 2 Explanation:
Inventory control:
Annual demand (D) = 1000 units
Lead time (LT) = 5 days
Inventory level for placing the order = Re-order level (ROL)
Rate of consumption (d) =D/365
ROL=d \times LT=\frac{1000}{365} \times 5=13.69 \approx 14 \; units
Annual demand (D) = 1000 units
Lead time (LT) = 5 days
Inventory level for placing the order = Re-order level (ROL)
Rate of consumption (d) =D/365
ROL=d \times LT=\frac{1000}{365} \times 5=13.69 \approx 14 \; units
Question 3 |
The product structure diagram shows the number
of different components required at each level to
produce one unit of the final product P. If there are
50 units of on-hand inventory of component A, the
number of additional units of component A needed
to produce 10 units of product P is _________ (in
integer).
160 | |
50 | |
110 | |
170 |
Question 3 Explanation:
To produce 10 units of 'P'
No. of units of 'A' required = (4x10)+(2x3x2x10) = 160 units
Net requirement of 'A' = 160 - 50 = 110 units
Question 4 |
Which one of the following is NOT a form of
inventory?
Raw materials | |
Work-in-process materials | |
Finished goods | |
CNC Milling Machines |
Question 4 Explanation:
CNC milling machines will not be treated as inventory.
Question 5 |
A factory produces m(i=1,2,...m) products, each of which requires processing on n(j=1,2,...n) workstations. Let a_{ij} be the amount of processing time that one unit of the i^{th} product requires on the j^{th} workstation. Let the revenue from selling one unit of the i^{th} product be r_i and h_i be the holding cost per unit per time period for the i^{th} product. The planning horizon consists of T \;(t=1,2,...T) time periods. The minimum demand that must be satisfied in time period t is d_{it}, and the capacity of the j^{th} workstation in time period t is c_{jt}. Consider the aggregate planning formulation below, with decision variables S_{it} (amount of product i sold in time period t ), X_{it} (amount of product i manufactured in time period t ) and I_{it} (amount of product i held in inventory at the end of time period t.
max\sum_{t=1}^{T}\sum_{i=1}^{m}(r_iS_{it}-h_iI_{it})
subject to
S_{it}\geq d_{it}\;\;\forall i,t
< capacity constraint >
< inventory balance constraint >
X_{it},S_{it}, I_{it} \geq 0;\; I_{i0}=0
The capacity constraints and inventory balance constraints for this formulation are
max\sum_{t=1}^{T}\sum_{i=1}^{m}(r_iS_{it}-h_iI_{it})
subject to
S_{it}\geq d_{it}\;\;\forall i,t
< capacity constraint >
< inventory balance constraint >
X_{it},S_{it}, I_{it} \geq 0;\; I_{i0}=0
The capacity constraints and inventory balance constraints for this formulation are
\sum_{j}^{m}a_{ij}X_{it}\leq c_{jt}\;\forall \; i,t\text{ and }I_{it}=I_{i,t-1}+X_{it}-d_{it}\; \forall \;i,t | |
\sum_{i}^{m}a_{ij}X_{it}\leq c_{jt}\;\forall \; i,t\text{ and }I_{it}=I_{i,t-1}+X_{it}-d_{it}\; \forall \;i,t | |
\sum_{i}^{m}a_{ij}X_{it}\leq d_{it}\;\forall \; i,t\text{ and }I_{it}=I_{i,t-1}+X_{it}-S_{it}\; \forall \;i,t | |
\sum_{i}^{m}a_{ij}X_{it}\leq d_{it}\;\forall \; i ,t\text{ and }I_{it}=I_{i,t-1}+S_{it}-X_{it}\; \forall \;i,t |
