There will be an additional 20 units of B and 0 units of J.


The product structure tree for end item E follows. The manager wants to know the
material requirements for ordered part R that will be needed to complete 120 units of E
by the start of week 5. Lead times for items are one week for level 0 items, one week for
level 1 items, and two weeks for level 2 items. There is a scheduled receipt of 60 units of
M at the start of week 2 and 100 units of R at the start of week 1. Lot-for-lot ordering is
used.
