\\F14F Term-End Examination June, 2016
BME-013 PRODUCTION MANAGEMENT
Time hours Maximum Marks: 70
Note: Answer any five questions. All questions carry equal marks. Use of scientific calculator is allowed.
1. Explain the concepts in Break-Even-Analysis with examples. Discuss the assumptions involved.
Potential locations B and C have the cost structures shown below for manufacturing a product expected to sell for Rs 2,700 per unit. Find the most economical location for an expected volume of 2000 units per year.
Site Fixed cost/year(Rs) Variable cost/unit
A 60,00,000 1,500
B 70,00,000 500
C 50,00,000 4,000
2. What are the assumptions underlying the time series methods of forecasting What are the limitations in using such methods for forecasting? 14
3. What does bill of materials structure mean Give an example. Write the basic input for MRP. Discuss the similarities and differences between MRP and JIT (Just-in-Time). 14
4. What do you understand by Inventory control Explain the purpose of maintaining inventory in any production unit. The demand of bearing produced by a company is uniform at 25 units per day. It is estimated that each time a production is set, the company incurs Rs 60 as fixed cost. Production cost is Rs 4 and carrying cost is Rs 1 per unit per day. If the shortage cost is Rs 6 per bearing per day, find the frequency of production run and the optimal production size. 14
5. Explain the concepts involved in TOC with the help of suitable example. What are the different steps involved in TOC? Give the flow chart using these steps. 14
6. Draw a network diagram from the following activities and find the critical path and total slack of activities
