From the following information prepare aggregate plan using: 1- Pure Chase Strategy 2- Pure Level Strategy. 3- Minimum Workforce with Subcontracting. • Which is the best plan (calculate costs)?
LVEL STRATEGY REQUIRED CALCULATIONS – WORKERS REQUIRED • Total net demand =8000- 400= 8000 units • Total working days (6 months)= 125 DAYS • Required workers= total net demand* time required to produce a unit Total working days* daily working hours per day 8000*5/(125*8) = 40 workers Or Daily production = 8000/ 125= 64 units Units produced= Daily production * working days per month Jan= 64 units*22 days= 1408 units
3- Minimum Workforce with Subcontracting • SUBCONTRACT+ UNITS PRODUCED = REQUIRED PRODUCTION • Minimum Workforce = (APRIL DEMAND ((LOWEST)) :- • 900*5/ (21 DAYS* 8 HOURS) = 26.8 = 27 WORKERS.
3- Minimum Workforce withSubcontracting- CALCULATING UNIT PRODUCED
3- Minimum Workforce withSubcontracting- - HOW INVENTORY RESULTS IN APRIL? • AFTER CALCULATING UNITS PRODUCED, WE SEE THAT IN PRODUCTION IN THIS MONTH IS MORE THAN DEMAND (907-900), SO THE DIFFERENCE (7 UNITS ONLY) IS THE MONTHLY INVENTORY.
