Question 1

Which one of the following statements about lot-sizing rules is TRUE?

The periodic order quantity (POQ) rule seeks to create inventory remnants.

If the POQ rule is used, an item's lot size can vary each time an order is placed.

The lot-for-lot (L4L) rule is a special case of the fixed-order quantity (FOQ) rule.

All lot-sizing rules seek to minimize inventory levels.

Question 2

MRP explosion means estimating the total number of:

subassemblies, components, and raw materials needed for each parent item.

raw materials to be purchased from all suppliers.

parts to be produced for each parent item.

parts needed to be produced less the number of parts on hand for each parent item.

Question 3

Which one of the following is a feature of MRP II, but not available in basic MRP systems?

Financial reporting

Action notices

Dispatch lists

Capacity reporting

Question 4

The Big Mistake Company uses an MRP system. However, the company's database contains many inaccuracies. Which type of inaccuracy is most likely to result in incorrect planned order release quantities for its dependent demand items?

Incorrect routings

Incorrect bills of materials

Incorrect cost and pricing data

Incorrect machine capacity data

Question 5

Which of the following statements on MRP is TRUE?

The payoffs from MRP tend to be greater when there are more BOM levels and larger lot sizes.

When MRP systems are enhanced to include financial reporting, they are called basic MRP systems, or "little mrps."

The fixed-order quantity (FOQ) eliminates remnants.

MRP is an inventory control system that derives the gross requirements of the end items from purchase commitments with vendors.
