Question

Will’s Welded Widgets (WWW) makes its Q Model from components R, S and T. Component R is made from two units of component X and one unit of component Y. Component T is made from one unit of component V and 3 units of component Z.

Using the WWW given information, calculate the replenishment lead time for the Q Model assuming that you have no beginning inventories.

Answer 1

1

2) Recharging lead time is the time taken to make the item from the obtainment of its fundamental segments to the last item. Suppose the lead time for amassing model Q item Q is given by LQ. So also we will indicate the lead time for every one of the segments utilizing their ID as postfix to L. The last recharging lead time can be spoken to by LF. Thus we have

LF = LQ + max (LR, LS, LT)

Here

LR = LaR + max (Lx, LY)

LT = LaT + max (LV, LZ)

Where LaR denotes the assembly time for R and LaT denotes the assembly time for T
