    Answer: 28,000 tons

    Explanation:

    Given the following;

    Average Weekly need = 2,800 tons

    Lead time = 10 weeks

    Average amount of tons on order = 10 * 2800 = 28,000 tons.

    The on order quantity may be explained as a purchase order indicating the status of ordered goods or items. These purchase order status is in effect once items goods ordered have been been perfected and in-transit. The purchase order status remains valid until the goods are received.

    The lead time refers to the time range or period between the initiation and receipt or completion stage of an order.
