ITPEC IP October 2024 Question 91
ITPEC IP October 2024 — Question 91 of 100
The net requirement for Part B is 25 pieces. Each Product A needs three B parts, so demand for 10 units creates a gross requirement of 10 × 3 = 30 B parts. Five B parts are already in stock and available for allocation. Therefore the net requirement is 30 − 5 = 25. Part C does not affect the calculation for B.
Answer (b)
Why not others:
- (a) 20 incorrectly uses the two C parts per product or subtracts too much stock
- (c) 30 is the gross requirement before available B inventory is deducted
- (d) 45 does not follow either the bill-of-material quantity or the stated inventory adjustment
Key rule: In basic MRP, gross component requirement equals parent demand × usage per parent; net requirement subtracts inventory and other available supply.
