Answer 1

Characteristics of level production include:

a. All of these answers are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Production leveling was originated in Japan, and it is called production smoothing too, its strategic plan modifies inventory stock to keep a balanced production level for an specific period, to leveling by volume, or by product. This approach requires careful management of the orders so they can be predicted reasonably and accurately in terms of facility restraints, or to reduce the valueless added section of the production time, and to remove the waste of items in a row, to adapt getting throughput rates.
