Once the preliminary production plan is established, it must be compared to the existing resources of the company. This step is called _____________ . Two questions must be answered:
Are the resources available to meet the production plans? If not, how will the difference be reconciled?

If the opening inventory is 400 units, demand is 900 units, and production is 800 units, what will be the ending inventory?

A company wants to produce 500 units over the next 3 months at a level rate. The months have 19, 20 and 21 working days, respectively. On the average, how much should the company produce each day to level productions?

Because of its labor contracts, a company must hire enough labor for 100 units of production per week on one shift or 200 units per week on two shifts, it cannot hire, layoff, or assign overtime. During the fourth week, workers will be available from another department to work part or all of an extra shift (up to 100 units). There is a planned shutdown for maintenance in the second week, which will cut production to half. Develop a production plan. The opening inventory is 200 units, and the desired ending inventory is 300 units.



If the opening backlog is 500 units, forecast demand is 700 units. And production is 800 units, what will be the ending backlog?
