Example Problem 1
A company wants to produce 10.000 units of an item
over the next three months at a level rate. The first
month has 20 working days; the second, 21 working
days; and the third, 12 working days because of an
annual shutdown. On the average, how much should
the company produce each day to level production?
Solution:
Langkah pengerjaan:
1. Hitung total produksi
Total produksi = 10.000 unit
2. Hitung total working days
Total working days = 20 + 21 + 12 = 53 hari
3. Hitung average daily production
Average daily production = 10.000 : 53
= 188,7 unit
Example problem 2
Amalgamated fish sinkers makes a product group of
fresh fish sinkers and wants to develop a production
plan for them. The expected opening inventory is
100 cases, and the company wants to reduce that
to 80 cases by the end of the planning period. The
number of working days is the same for each
period. There are no back orders. The expected
demand for the fish sinkers is as follow :

Solution
a) Total production = 600 + 80 100 = 580 cases
Production each period = 580/5 = 116 cases
b) Ending inventory = opening inventory + production
demand
Ending inventory (period 1) = 100 + 116 110 = 106
cases
Ending inventory (period 2) = 106 + 116 120 = 102
cases
Ending inventory (period 3) = 102 + 116 130 = 88
cases
Ending inventory (period 4) = 88 + 116 120 = 84 cases
Ending inventory (period 5) = 84 + 116 120 = 80 cases
c) Total cost = (106 + 102 + 88 + 84 + 80)($5) = $2300
d)Since there were no stockouts and no changes in the
level of production, this would be the total cost of the
plan.

Example Problem 3
A local printing company provides a
custom printing service. Since each job
is different, demand is forecast in
hours per week. Over the next 5
weeks, the company expects that
demand will be 100 hours per week.
There is an existing backlog of 100
hours, and at the end of 5 weeks, the
Solution:
1. Hitung total produksi
Total produksi = 500 + 100 80 = 520 jam
2. Hitung produksi per minggu
Weekly production = 520 : 5 = 104 jam
3. Hitung backlog untuk masing-masing minggu
Projected backlog = old backlog + forecast production
- Week 1 : Projected backlog = 100 + 100 104 = 96
hours
- Week 2 : Projected backlog = 96 + 100 104 = 92 hours
- Week 3 : Projected backlog = 92 + 100 104 = 88 hours
- Week 4 : Projected backlog = 88 + 100 104 = 84 hours
- Week 5 : Projected backlog = 84 + 100 104 = 80 hours
