Abstract

This case deals with production and inventory planning in a ''dependent- demand'' environment. Students must choose and evaluate a master production schedule in the course of determining the net requirements of components in a two-level end-product explosion. The case is intended to be taught with ''Note on Material-Requirements Planning'' (UVA-OM-0816) or similar expository reading about MRP.
