• Question 61:

  A. The respondent may file an appeal with the Ethics Committee
  B. None; the decision made by the Board of Directors are final

  Explanation

• Question 62:

  One of the benefits of Integrating a poka-yoke into the production process is that it can be used to:

  A. facilitate mixed-model scheduling.
  B. prevent defects.
  C. Improve machine utilization.
  D. enable one-piece flow.
  B. prevent defects.

  ---

  Explanation

  Poka-yoke is a Japanese term for "mistake-proofing." Its primary benefit in the production process is to prevent defects by designing mechanisms or procedures that avoid human errors or make them immediately detectable.

• Question 63:

  Capacity requirements planning (CRP) is applicable primarily In companies operating In an environment where:

  A. backlog is very low.
  B. the status of work orders is disregarded.
  C. lean principles are used.
  D. material requirements planning (MRP) is used.
  D. material requirements planning (MRP) is used.

  ---

  Explanation

  Capacity Requirements Planning (CRP) is primarily used in environments where Material Requirements Planning (MRP) is implementeD: CRP uses the planned orders and work orders from MRP to determine whether sufficient capacity exists at work centers to meet production requirements.

• Question 64:

  The time spent In queue by a specific manufacturing job is determined by which of the following factors related to the order?

  A. Lot size
  B. Priority
  C. Setup time
  D. Run time
  B. Priority

  ---

  Explanation

  The time spent in queue by a specific manufacturing job is determined by the priority of the order. Priority is the relative importance or urgency of an order compared to other orders in the system. Priority can be assigned based on various criteria, such as due date, customer preference, profitability, or first-come-first-serveD: Priority determines the order in which jobs are processed at each workstation and affects the waiting time and flow time of each joB: Higher priority jobs have shorter waiting times and lower priority jobs have longer waiting times. Priority can be used as a tool to manage the trade-offs between customer service, capacity utilization, and inventory levels.

• Question 65:

  Typically, rough-cut capacity planning (RCCP) in a job shop environment would review which of the following work centers to determine the ability to execute the plan?

  A. Critical work centers only
  B. Gateway work centers only
  C. Final assembly work centers only
  D. All work centers
  A. Critical work centers only

  ---

  Explanation

  Rough-cut capacity planning (RCCP) is a technique that evaluates the feasibility of a master production schedule (MPS) by comparing the available capacity of key resources with the required capacity of the MPS. In a job shop environment, where products are made to order and have high variety and low volume, RCCP would typically review only the critical work centers to determine the ability to execute the plan. Critical work centers are those that have the greatest impact on the throughput, lead time, or cost of the products. They are usually the work centers that have the highest utilization, longest setup times, or most frequent bottlenecks. By focusing on the critical work centers, RCCP can simplify the capacity planning process and identify the potential problems or constraints that may affect the MPS. The other options, gateway work centers, final assembly work centers, and all work centers, are not as effective as critical work centers for RCCP in a job shop environment, as they may not reflect the true capacity requirements or constraints of the products.

• Question 66:

  Which of the following may authorize an organization to monitor an employee's company computer and phone usage?

  A. Signed Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA)
  B. Signed Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)
  C. ISC2 Code of Ethics
  D. Suspicious that a crime is being committed
  B. Signed Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)

  Explanation

• Question 67:

  Reducing distribution network inventory days of supply will have which of the following Impacts?

  A. Increase turnovers and increase cash-to-cash cycle time.
  B. Increase turnovers and reduce cash-to-cash cycle time.
  C. Decrease turnovers and reduce cash-to-cash cycle time.
  D. Decrease turnovers and increase cash-to-cash cycle time.
  B. Increase turnovers and reduce cash-to-cash cycle time.

  ---

  Explanation

  Reducing inventory days of supply in the distribution network means holding less inventory. This results in:

  Higher inventory turnover, since the same amount of sales is supported with less inventory.

  Shorter cash-to-cash cycle time, because cash is tied up in inventory for a shorter period.

• Question 68:

  What is the reason for using the sample inspection?

  A. testing the product is destructive
  B. there is not enough time to give 100% inspection to a batch of product
  C. human error is estimated to be as high as 20% when performing long-term repetitive testing
  D. All of the above
  D. All of the above

  ---

  Explanation

• Question 69:

  Plans are being made to move an organization's software systems to the cloud in order to utilize the flexibility and scalability of the clouD: Some of these software systems process highly sensitive datA: The organization must follow strict legal requirements regarding the location of the highly sensitive data processed by the software systems. Which cloud model will BEST fit the organization's requirements?

  A. Private cloud
  B. Multicloud
  C. Public cloud
  D. Hybrid cloud
  D. Hybrid cloud

  ---

  Explanation

• Question 70:

  A statistical safety stock calculation would be appropriate for:

  A. components used in multiple end items.
  B. new products at time of introduction.
  C. end items with stable demand.
  D. supply-constrained raw materials.
  C. end items with stable demand.

  ---

  Explanation

  Statistical safety stock calculations rely on historical demand data to determine variability. They are most accurate and appropriate for items with stable and predictable demand, such as end items with consistent patterns.
