Which of the following items can be classed as inventory? Select THREE

  1. Components
  2. Finished goods
  3. Warehouses
  4. Transport vehicles
  5. Work in progress

Answer(s): A,B,E

Explanation:

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

Inventory in logistics and supply chain management refers to goods held for sale or for use in producing goods for sale, at any stage of completion. This includes raw materials/components, work- in-progress (WIP), and finished goods. Physical assets such as warehouses or vehicles are not inventory; they are resources/capacity assets.


Reference:

CIPS L5M10 Study Guide, Section on "The role of logistics and inventory," p. 3



Which of the following statements about Sales and Operations Planning (S&OP) are TRUE? Select TWO

  1. It is a process of planning future aggregate resource levels so that supply will balance with demand
  2. It is a fundamental financial plan to ensure business profitability in relation to supply and demand
  3. It is a cross-functional activity
  4. Competitors' behaviour is not accounted for in Sales and Operations Planning

Answer(s): A,C

Explanation:

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

S&OP aligns aggregate demand and supply by planning future resource levels, typically on a rolling monthly cycle. It is explicitly cross-functional, involving operations/logistics, marketing/sales, finance, and HR to reconcile a single plan.
While finance input is important, S&OP is not merely a financial plan, and external factors--including competitor actions--are considered in demand assumptions.


Reference:

CIPS L5M10 Study Guide, S&OP overview, p. 112



Various business functions complete different controlling activities.
Which control activity would be completed by the Distribution function?

  1. Purchasing contract analysis
  2. Quality control
  3. Developing warehouse budgets
  4. Monitoring and controlling deliveries

Answer(s): D

Explanation:

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

Distribution control focuses on transport execution and delivery performance--monitoring, expediting, and controlling outbound deliveries. Purchasing contract analysis belongs to supply/procurement control; quality control to production/quality; and warehouse budgets to warehousing control.


Reference:

CIPS L5M10 Study Guide, "Controlling activities by function," p.109



Which of the following is a commonly used indicator for measuring capacity and manufacturing productivity and is usually expressed as the percentage of time a machine is truly productive?

  1. Effective Operational Measure
  2. Overall Equipment Effectiveness
  3. Machine downtime
  4. Actual output

Answer(s): B

Explanation:

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) combines availability, performance, and quality to indicate how much of scheduled time a resource is genuinely productive. Downtime is a component that reduces OEE; "actual output" is an absolute measure, not an effectiveness percentage.


Reference:

CIPS L5M10 Study Guide, OEE definition, p. 109



Strategic planning is long-term planning, usually over 5­10 years in the future. Is this sentence correct?

  1. Yes -- the longer the strategic plan, the less detail it will include
  2. Yes -- strategic plans have more detail than short-term plans
  3. No -- long-term plans are tactical rather than strategic
  4. No -- strategic plans detail the objectives of the organisation over the upcoming year

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

Strategy deals with long-term direction and typically contains broad objectives with lower detail; tactical (mid-term) and operational (short-term) plans add specificity and detail. Therefore, longer- horizon strategic plans contain less operational detail than short-term plans.


Reference:

CIPS L5M10 Study Guide, Planning horizons--strategic/tactical/operational, pp. 99­100



A Transport Management System (TMS) comprises several functions.
Which of the following is NOT one of these?

  1. Planning and decision-making
  2. Transport execution
  3. Fleet maintenance
  4. Measurement and reporting

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

Core TMS functions typically include: planning & decision-making (e.g., carrier/route selection), transport execution (e.g., tendering, dispatch), transport follow-up/visibility, and measurement & reporting (KPIs). Fleet maintenance is generally a separate fleet/asset management function, not a standard TMS core function.


Reference:

CIPS L5M10 Study Guide, TMS functions, p. 91



"Pick and Pack" is a warehouse management system (WMS) functionality detailing how items should be picked to fulfil customer orders.
Which of the following are types of pick paths that can be programmed into a WMS? Select THREE

  1. Line picking
  2. Zone picking
  3. Wave picking
  4. Rotation picking
  5. Batch picking

Answer(s): B,C,E

Explanation:

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

Common WMS pick-path/strategy types include zone picking (pickers confined to zones), wave picking (releasing picks in waves), and batch picking (multiple orders picked in one pass). "Line picking" and "rotation picking" are not standard WMS pick-path terms in the context used here.


Reference:

CIPS L5M10 Study Guide, WMS and "pick & pack" functions, p. 88; Inventory picking strategies, LO 1.1



Which of the following are types of Auto-Identification and Data Capture (AIDC) technology used in logistics? Select THREE

  1. Barcodes
  2. Biometrics
  3. Voice recognition
  4. Smartphones
  5. Electronic data interchange

Answer(s): A,B,C

Explanation:

Comprehensive and Detailed Explanation From Exact Extract:

AIDC encompasses technologies that automatically identify items and capture data with minimal human intervention. Examples include barcodes/QR, RFID, biometrics, magnetic stripes, and voice recognition. Smartphones are devices that may host AIDC apps but are not a technology class themselves; EDI is a system-to-system messaging standard, not AIDC.


Reference:

CIPS L5M10 Study Guide, AIDC overview and examples, p. 83

question 35 is incorrect, the correct answer is c, it even states so: explanation: when a vm is infected with ransomware, you should not restore the vm to the infected vm. this is because the ransomware will still be present on the vm, and it will encrypt the files again. you should also not restore the vm to any vm within the companys subscription. this is because the ransomware could spread to other vms in the subscription. the best way to restore a vm that is infected with ransomware is to restore it to a new azure vm. this will ensure that the ransomware is not present on the new vm.
