Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The bill of materials (BOM) for the product being produced is a comprehensive list of all materials, components, and assemblies required to manufacture the product. The BOM includes the quantity of each item required to make the final product. Therefore, the production planner can determine what inventory is needed for the future production by referring to the BOM. The finished goods inventory status report provides information on the inventory of completed products and not the materials required for future production. Standard costs and manpower availability reports are essential but do not help in determining inventory needs for future production.
