Because of the high setup cost of $60/order for producing push lawnmowers, production is ordered in specified quantities instead of lot-for-lot. Calculate the economic order quantity for push mowers (assume independent of model; holding cost are given above). This quantity will be used as the lot size for the MRP. Lawn King produces a couple models of push lawn mowers. A total of 60 workers are currently employed to work on the assembly line. Hiring cost is $800 for each new employee, while the cost of laying off an employee is $1200. The production strategy in current use is a one-shift-per-day level strategy at average demand. Differences between demand and production are balanced by inventory and backorders. If a backorder occurs, the order is filled from the next available production run and safety stock is consumed if needed and replenished later. Lawn King utilizes a $7/unit carrying cost per month for inventory, and backorders have a cost of $10/unit per month. Production is estimated at 5 mowers per worker per shift, and the assembly line operates 20 working days (shifts) per month. Lawn King keeps 500 mowers as safety stock, which will be the beginning inventory for September. The regular time cost of production is $50 per lawn mower. [Hint: production = (# of workers)( # of mowers each worker produces per shift)(# of shifts per month)] = Each May an aggregate production plan is prepared for the upcoming fiscal year that starts in September. The aggregate plan is used for personnel planning, inventory planning, and budget preparation. 3. Prepare an MRP. Mowmaster is Lawn King's most popular model. Like all push mowers, it is made of a motor assembly (purchased from a vendor), handle assembly, and body assembly. The handle assembly is made of a handle and shifter. The body assembly consists of a blade, frame, and 4 wheels. a. Complete the product structure tree for the Mowmaster. b. Complete a net MRP for wheels if 2000 Mowmasters need to be shipped in week 8. Reminder to use Q from part 2 as the lot size for the mower. + Item Mowmaster Motor assembly Handle assembly Body assembly Handle Shifter Blade Frame Wheels Lead Time 1 2 1 2 1 2 1 1 2 Inventory Lot size 100 Q= 10 Lot for lot 10 Lot for lot 300 Lot for lot 0 Lot for lot 0 Lot for lot 0 Lot for lot 0 Lot for lot 1550 200 Item 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 Mowmaster Level = LT = Gross Require On Hand Net Require Order Receipt Order Release Gross Require Body assembly Level = LT = On Hand Net Require Order Receipt Order Release Wheels Gross Require On Hand Net Require Order Receipt Level = LT = Order Release Question 12 2 pts Order release quantity for Mowmaster = Question 13 2 pts Carryover on hand inventory of completed Mowmasters to week 9 = Question 14 2 pts Order release quantity for Body Assemblies Question 15 2 pts Net requirement for wheels = Question 16 2 pts Carryover on hand inventory of wheels to the next week = Question 17 2 pts Order release quantity for wheels = Question 18 2 pts Order release for wheels is in week #
