Wait, wait, wait... did someone say 'level production plan'? I thought we were talking about a 'lever production plan' where you just pull the lever and the widgets come out. *chuckles* Ah, the joys of manufacturing humor.

This is a tricky one. I'm going to have to take a closer look at the image and do some calculations. *scratches head* Okay, I think I've got it - the answer is A) 108. Gotta love these brain teasers!

Aha! I've got it. The answer is D) 125. Why? Because the production rate should be higher than the average demand to build up inventory and ensure a smooth production flow. Simple!

I agree, having a production rate higher than the average demand is essential for a level production plan.

Hmm, I'm not sure about this one. The image shows a lot of numbers, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to apply them to the question. I guess I'll just go with my gut and pick C) 112.

I think the answer is B) 110. The level production plan aims to maintain a constant production rate throughout the planning horizon, and based on the information provided in the image, the production rate per period should be 110 units.
