11/14/2005 11:39:41 PM

11/15/2005 12:04:27 AM

11/15/2005 12:06:23 AM

11/15/2005 12:08:30 AM

11/15/2005 12:21:26 AM

11/15/2005 12:22:44 AM

11/15/2005 12:43:41 AM

FAVRE > VICK

11/15/2005 1:11:27 AM

so at least we have a little longer to finish it...

11/15/2005 9:50:11 AM

i've finished the homework and am positive i'll be getting 100%

11/15/2005 11:36:32 AM

good. lemme get a look at it

11/15/2005 2:04:45 PM

Douche, wanna compare some numbers later? I'm double checking mine in a bit after I take a nap. I'm 100% position on few of the problems but on others I would feel better if we compared our numbers.

Yes that's right you use 0. For Avaliable-to-promise, weeks 2,5,8 you will have numbers there.

11/15/2005 2:32:10 PM

Ok, I'm an idiot... can someone tell me how to figure out planned orders and planned receipts?

11/15/2005 5:32:40 PM

i'm on that problem now.... are the scheduled receipts all zero?? if not, how do you get those values

11/15/2005 5:51:07 PM

i don't need to compare answers, i know mine are right...he went over 2 of the problems in class today, i checked my answers with a friends...but i'm 100% sure it's good...u can PM me later if u want

11/15/2005 6:03:40 PM

Is there a formula for planned receipts/orders that I'm missing??

11/15/2005 6:09:01 PM

i dont know how did you get your scheduled receipts??

11/15/2005 6:15:40 PM

I think all of the blanks are supposed to be "0".... but that's just the way the book made it sound, I could be wrong....

11/15/2005 6:19:34 PM

and how do you get you EI if you don't have the planned receipts??? and then you cant get your net requirements without the EI

IM SO CONFUSED

11/15/2005 6:20:55 PM

Yeah, it's driving me crazy too.... I saw the formula for the EI but it just mentioned the planned receipts and orders

11/15/2005 6:24:40 PM

i wish he would of gone over that problem instead of the other one today

11/15/2005 7:32:13 PM

I couldn't go today so the first two problems are the only ones I've figured out so far

11/15/2005 7:37:18 PM

i'll be in nelson today 430-545 w/ homework in hand...find me if u want to.

11/16/2005 11:32:56 AM

Can someone tell me how to do the planned receipts/orders? I can't be at Nelson at 430...

11/16/2005 12:19:59 PM

i dont know
this homework is terrible

someone post some hints!

11/16/2005 2:55:02 PM

is there a certain order everybody is doing them in

them

as in

receipts, orders, etc.

11/16/2005 4:55:31 PM

you have to work backwards: figure out the receipts first, and you know the lead time is two weeks, so that same number goes two weeks back under planned orders (I THINK)

Question: on number 8 (but the fourth problem, i dont know why our numbers are messed up!) are the scheduled receipts all zero since we werent given any in the problem?

11/16/2005 6:00:48 PM

yea

i'm pretty sure scheduled receipts are always given, and if not, they are zero

11/16/2005 6:26:19 PM

what about planned receipts?

11/16/2005 6:32:43 PM

i just based my planned receipts off of my planned orders

you receipt the total when you receive it, based on the lead time

11/16/2005 6:52:27 PM

anyone else got any tips?

on anything from #6 on?

11/16/2005 7:44:01 PM

i just got back from the gym...so i'm back at it again

ill let you know when i get further

11/16/2005 7:51:36 PM

yea, ill be here

11/16/2005 8:28:13 PM

Tip: Go to class and listen and you will know how to do the homework. He tells you how to do them.

11/16/2005 8:55:33 PM

Tip: shut your mouth and don't respond to this thread if you don't have anything meaningful to contribute

I DO go to class and listen, but his examples aren't well explained and its hard to go back and look at teh notes and figure out how he got those numbers

back to the topic: i'm working on number 8 right now

11/16/2005 9:34:13 PM

#8 is pretty much the same as 6

11/16/2005 10:01:45 PM

on number 10, i know how to find the gross requirements for "C" but how do you find it for "E" and "F"?

11/16/2005 10:01:54 PM

ok, ill try to explain it the best I can: you need 3 E's to make B and you need 1 E to make C
SO, you look at the Planned Order Releases for B and C to determine the gross requirements for E

Example: for week 1 GR(1)=3(250)+1(600)=1350

1350 is your GR for week one Item E

11/16/2005 10:13:52 PM

thanks soooo much

11/16/2005 10:15:09 PM

^you're welcome



ALOT of my numbers for Item F are zero....is that what everyone else is getting?????

[Edited on November 16, 2005 at 10:21 PM. Reason : ,]

11/16/2005 10:20:19 PM

would it not be 2 E to make C?

11/16/2005 10:30:09 PM

no, to make C you need: 1 D, 1 E, and 2 Fs
