Multiple Choice Test Oml 2/10

The given statement states that computer simulation is a tool used to analyze process performance with high level of detail. This implies that computer simulation allows for a thorough examination of various aspects of a process, providing insights into its performance and potential areas for improvement. Therefore, the statement is correct.

The statement is correct because it states that there are DIN standards for the definition of the terms "Erzeugnis" (product), "Baugruppe" (assembly), "Teil/Wiederholteil" (part/repeated part), and "Rohstoff" (raw material). This implies that these terms have specific definitions and criteria outlined in the DIN standards.

Meldemenge = 700
Bestellbestand = 500

The statement is incorrect. The correct explanation is that the optimal order quantity is ordered at fixed intervals in the order rhythm system.

The Bullwhip Effect refers to the phenomenon where small fluctuations in consumer demand can cause progressively larger fluctuations in demand further up the supply chain. This effect occurs due to the time delays, lack of information sharing, and decision-making processes within the supply chain. As a result, suppliers may overreact to these fluctuations and create excess inventory or shortages, leading to inefficiencies and increased costs. Therefore, the statement that the Bullwhip Effect describes the amplification of demand fluctuations along the supply chain is correct.

The correct answer is "Richtig" which means "Correct" in German. The explanation for this answer is that in the order cycle procedure, the order quantity is determined by the order level and the inventory at the time of ordering. This means that the quantity to be ordered is based on the desired inventory level and the current inventory level at the time of placing the order.

Es muss permanent geprüft werden, ob der Bestellpunkt erreicht ist (Bestellpunkt).
Der Bestand beim Rythmus muss in regelmäßigen Abständen ggf. angepasst werden.

In the Bestellrhythmusverfahren (order cycle procedure), the optimal order quantity is taken into account when determining the order interval. This means that the system calculates the best time to place an order based on factors such as demand, lead time, and inventory carrying costs. By considering the optimal order quantity, the company can minimize costs and ensure that they have enough inventory to meet customer demand. Therefore, the statement "Beim Bestellrhythmusverfahren wird die optimale Bestellmenge bei der Ermittlung des Bestellintervalls berücksichtigt" (In the order cycle procedure, the optimal order quantity is taken into account when determining the order interval) is correct.

The Delphi method is a structured communication technique used to gather opinions from a panel of experts. It involves multiple rounds of questionnaires and feedback, aiming to reach a consensus or forecast on a specific topic. In this case, the Delphi method can be used for potential and technology forecasting, which means it can help predict and assess the future potential and developments in technology.

The statement is incorrect. The classification of procurement goods into A, B, and C goods is not based on DIN norms. It is a commonly used method in inventory management, where A goods are high-value items that require careful monitoring, B goods are medium-value items with moderate monitoring, and C goods are low-value items that require minimal monitoring.

Beim Bestellrythmusverfahren wird in regelmäßigen Abständen bestellt. Es gibt keine Meldemenge!

The statement is incorrect because the length of the delivery time does have an influence on the bullwhip effect. The bullwhip effect refers to the phenomenon where small changes in consumer demand can result in larger fluctuations in orders placed by retailers, wholesalers, and manufacturers. Longer delivery times can amplify this effect as delays in receiving goods can lead to increased uncertainty and larger order quantities to compensate for the potential shortage. Therefore, the length of the delivery time does have an impact on the bullwhip effect.

This statement is incorrect. Higher discounts over shorter periods of time actually have a greater impact on the bullwhip effect compared to lower discounts over longer periods of time. The bullwhip effect refers to the phenomenon where small changes in consumer demand can result in larger fluctuations in orders placed by retailers, wholesalers, and manufacturers. Higher discounts over shorter periods can lead to stockpiling and overordering, causing the bullwhip effect to worsen.

The given statement is incorrect. In the reorder point system, the reorder point is determined based on factors such as lead time, demand, and safety stock. The reorder point is the inventory level at which a new order should be placed to replenish the stock. The reorder quantity, on the other hand, is the amount of inventory that should be ordered when the reorder point is reached. Therefore, the reorder quantity can be determined before the reorder point is reached.

Vorgeschobene Liefertermine sind außerplanmäßig.

The given statement is false. The Bestellpunktverfahren (reorder point procedure) and Bestellrhythmusverfahren (fixed-time period procedure) do not lead to the same average inventory level even when there are no random consumption and lead time deviations. The Bestellpunktverfahren aims to maintain a certain inventory level and triggers a new order when the stock reaches a specific reorder point. On the other hand, the Bestellrhythmusverfahren orders at fixed intervals regardless of the inventory level. These two methods have different inventory management approaches and can result in different average inventory levels.

In a recursive process combination in queuing networks, the arrival rate of the sub-processes is determined by multiplication, not addition.

The correct answer is false. The practical advantage of the order cycle procedure is not that it results in the same order dates for goods from a supplier, but rather that it allows for the cost advantages of bulk orders to be utilized.
