The Product structure of an assembly P is shown in the figure.
Estimated demand for end product P is as follows:
Ignore lead times for assembly and subassembly. Production capacity (per week) for component R is the bottleneck operation. Starting with zero inventory, the smallest capacity that will ensure a feasible production plan up to week 6 is
-
- 1000
- 1200
- 2200
- 2400
Correct Option: C
The M.R.P. for R is given by 
If 6P – 12800 ≥ 0 then the capacity is feasible
∴ Minimization, 6P = 12800
⇒ P ≅ 2200
