Question

Given the following diagram for a product, determine the ADDITIONAL quantity of each component required to assemble 20 unit of the finished products

The current inventory is as follows.

B	C	D	E	F	G	H
10	10	25	12	30	5	0

Answer 1

The diagram is not shared, assuming the above diagram is correct one.

• For end item B's required = 2 | So for 20 end items, B required = 20*2 - 10 = 30
• For end item C's required = 1| So for 20 end items, C required = 20*1 - 10 = 10
• For end item D's required = 3 | So for 20 end items, D required = 20*3 - 25 = 35
• For end item E's required = 2*2 + 1*2 + 3*2 = 12 | So for 20 end items, E required = 20*12 - 12 = 228

Note - 1 End item requires 2 B and 1 B requires 2 E so , E required = 2*2. Similarly, E required in chain with C and D is 1*2 and 3*2 respectively.

• For end item F's required = 2*3= 6| So for 20 end items, F required = 20*6 - 30 = 90
• For end item G's required = 1*2= 2 | | So for 20 end items, G required = 20*2 - 5 = 35
• For end item H's required = 3*4= 12 | So for 20 end items, H required = 20*12 - 0 = 240
