If the MPS indicates a projected balance of zero in period 6, when would the planner place the replenishment order? Period 8 Period 4 Not enough information provided Period 6 If the projected balance drops below zero the planner will need to place the replenishment order according to the lead time. In this case, the planner would need to place the order in http://www.pocket- pr ep.com/fr ee- exams/suppl y- chain- manag ement- exams/cpi m- mpr -pr actice- test/ 2/5 3/4/2014 CPIM MPR Practice Test period 4 in order to support period 6 within the 2 period lead time. 5.

If user bias is not prevented from entering into forecast adjustments, they may vary widely. 8. A company has two distribution centers that both turn inventory over with the same velocity.

It is normal for the final assembly schedule to correspond to the MPS in which of the f ollowing environments? Assemble-to-stock Assemble-to-order Make-to-order Make-to-stock The final assembly schedule does not require separation in a make-to-stock company as products are stocked in their final assembled form for delivery to the customer. 11.

Measurable assets have not been committed during the time period Changes can be readily made during the firm period Some changes will be allowed by the slushy period but commitments to materials have generally been Timefences divide the planning horizon into firm, slushy, and free periods Free periods allow easy changes while slushy periods allow only minor changes over time. The third time fence, firm, does not allow for any changes unless the highest management level approves them due to significant cost impacts. 12.

Receiving warehouse safety stock Supply warehouse safety stock Being offset in the receiving warehouse as a gross requirement Being offset in the supply warehouse as a gross requirement Similar to the offset of leadtime in a MRP system in which purchase leadtime offsets the planned order release, lead time in a DRP system can be offset when the shipment planned http://www.pocket- pr ep.com/fr ee- exams/suppl y- chain- manag ement- exams/cpi m- mpr -pr actice- test/ 4/5 3/4/2014 CPIM MPR Practice Test matches the gross requirement of the supply warehouse. 14.

Limit inventory method Reorder point with safety stock Distribution resource planning Economic order quantity The logic used in MRP is similar to the logic used in distribution resource planning which enables the planning of inventory at warehouse locations. Movements of inventory from one warehouse to another are established by leadtimes and because time phasing is used in the logic, inventory management which uses DRP in a warehouse network is most effective. 15. Warehouse space efficiency of use will be affected by which of the following? Rack accessibility and order picking process None of the choices are correct Cube utilization and rack density All of the choices are correct The largest capital cost of the distribution network is warehouse space and therefore, it must be used effectively.
