12. Consider the following MRP record:

Week 1 2 3 4 5 6 Gross requirements 25 30 5 15 5 10 Scheduled receipts 50 15 Projected available balance 35 10 30 25 10 20 10 Planned order releases Q = lot-for-lot; LT = 5; SS = 0.

Suppose 15 units of the scheduled receipt for 50 units due on Monday of week 2 are scrapped during week 1, and no scrap ticket is issued. Furthermore, assume this lot isn’t counted before it’s put away in the stockroom on Monday of week 2, but is recorded as a receipt of 50 units. What impact will these actions have on factory operations?
