Discussion
The ....................... is a plan for the production of individual end items.
Answer: D
The plan is the MPS, the master production schedule.
The master production schedule states which end items will be produced, in what quantities and in which periods. It translates the aggregate plan into a schedule for individual finished products and is the main input to MRP.
MRP (material requirements planning) works backwards from the MPS through the bill of materials to plan components and raw materials, not end items. MRP II extends this to all manufacturing resources, including capacity and finance. JIT is a philosophy of producing just what is needed when it is needed, not a schedule of end items.
