Explanation / Answer

A.

End item

Gross requirement = 42 units

On-hand invt. = 0

Net requirements = 42 units

Component B:

units required per end item = 2 units

Gross req. = 42*2 = 84 units

On-hand invt. = 30 units

Net Reqt. = 84 - 30 = 54 units

Additional units of Component B = 54 units

B.

Planned order receipt for end items = 8th week

Lead time for end item = 1 week

Planned order release for end items = 7th week

Planned order receipt for all components = 7th week

Maximum component lead time of componenets = 3 weeks

planned order relaease for components with LT of 3 weks = 7 - 3 = 4th week

Thus, latest week thaht the order can be started and still be ready to ship on time is 4th week.
