Update the MPS table shown in Figure 12-11 given these inputs: It is now the end of week 1; customer orders are 35 units for week 2, 16 for week 3, 11 for week 4, 8 for week 5, and 3 for week 6. Inventory on hand is now 33 units. Use the MPS rule of ordering production when projected on-hand inventory would be negative without production.     June       July          2 3 4   5 6 7 8  Forecast 30 30 30   40 40 40 40  Committed 35 16 11   8 3 0 0  Project on hand (min = 0)  33                  Product (lot size = 70)                  Available-to-promise
