Answer: D
ReplyDeleteIt needs to fulfill requirement of 4280. According to the Rounding Profile 4280 falls in the threshold 900 - 7999 where it should round up to 1000. In this case the balance would be 4280 - (4 x 1000) = 280 to be fulfilled. And the next requirement of 280 falls in the threshold 60 - 799 where it should round up to 100; and so a total of 300 is expected.
ReplyDeleteWe expect the supplier to send us:
4 boxes of 1000 each (4 x 1000)
3 boxes of 100 each (3 x 100)
Totaling 4300
However, only a single planned order of 4300 will be created for the rounding profile. Note the header detail also do not show any other lot sizing limiting factors such as minimum or maximum quantities.
