  A. the length of a long-term agreement.
  B. how an Item should be scheduled.
  C. environmental aspects and impacts.
  D. If risk pooling would reduce inventory investment.
  C. environmental aspects and impacts.

  ---

  Explanation

  A life cycle assessment (LCA) is a method of evaluating the environmental impacts of a product or service throughout its life cycle, from raw material extraction to disposal or recycling. LCA can help to identify opportunities for reducing environmental impacts, improving resource efficiency, and enhancing customer value. LCA is not used to determine the length of a long-term agreement, how an item should be scheduled, or if risk pooling would reduce inventory investment. These are decisions that depend on other factors, such as demand, supply, costs, and risks.

• Question 477:

  Which of the following actions hinders the transition from a push system to a pull system?

  A. Using standardized containers
  B. Using work orders as a backup
  C. Introducing kanban cards as authorization for material movement
  D. Maintaining a constant number of kanban cards during minor changes in the level of production
  B. Using work orders as a backup

  ---

  Explanation

  Using work orders as a backup maintains elements of a push system, where production is scheduled in advance rather than triggered by actual demanD: This hinders the transition to a pull system, which relies on signals like kanban cards to produce only what is needed, when it is needed.

• Question 478:

  The question below is based on the following information: Beginning inventory = 43 Week 1 | Week 2 | Week 3 Forecast: 20 | 20 | 20 Customer orders: 22 | 17 | 10 Projected on-hand: ? Master production schedule (MPS): - | - | 80 Available-to-promise (ATP): ? What is the largest customer order that could be accepted for delivery at the end of week 3 without making changes to the master production schedule (MPS)?

  A. 74
  B. 63
  C. 61
  D. 31
  A. 74

  ---

  Explanation

  Step-by-step solution:

  MPS of 80 is in Week 3 only. Step 1: Projected on-hand inventory (through Week 3): Week 1: Beginning inventory = 43 Customer orders = 22 Ending inventory = 43 - 22 = 21 Week 2: Inventory = 21 Customer orders = 17 Ending inventory = 21 - 17 = 4 Week 3: Inventory = 4

  MPS = 80 (received in Week 3) Available = 4 + 80 = 84 Customer orders = 10 Ending inventory = 84 - 10 = 74 Step 2: ATP Calculation: ATP is calculated in weeks with MPS. Since the only MPS is in Week 3, ATP is: ATP = MPS (80) - sum of customer orders booked for Week 3 and beyond Week 3 orders = 10 ATP = 80 - 10 = 70 But to calculate how much extra can be booked in Week 3, we need to consider how much on-hand will be available after satisfying existing orders. Week 3 ending inventory = 74 So the maximum customer order that could be accepted in Week 3 = 74
