Explanation / Answer

The demand for JJ is given as 200 in week 6 and 130 in week eight

To assemble item JJ, it takes two weeks. So to ensure the supply on week 6, JJ should be started to assemble in week 4 (two weeks before the demand)

We need three units of SE to produce one unit of item JJ. Hence, at the start of Week 4, we need 3*200=600 units of SE.

SE also has a lead time for purchase ie. 1 week. Hence to assemble JJ, SE should be ordered to purchase one week before ie in the week 3
