I'm stumped on this one. Time to use my lifeline and phone a friend. Hopefully, they know their stuff when it comes to production planning.

Ha! This exam is trying to catch us out. Of course, the answer is Master Production Schedule. I can't believe anyone would fall for Inventory Control Planning. That's just silly.

Ooh, this is a tricky one. I'm going to have to go with option D - both B and C. The question seems to be asking for a combination of scheduling and inventory control.

Hmm, I'm a little unsure about this one. I was thinking it might be Material Requirements Planning, but the wording seems to fit the Master Production Schedule description better.
