D) available-to-promise is the clear winner here. The other choices sound like they're straight out of a game of supply chain Bingo!

D) available-to-promise, no doubt about it. Though I did consider A) planned order receipts for a moment there. I'm just glad they didn't throw in 'the magic number' as an option!

Hmm, this one's tricky. I was tempted by C) master production schedule due date, but I think D) available-to-promise is the way to go. Gotta love these inventory management questions!

I was leaning towards B) projected inventory balance, but D) available-to-promise sounds more accurate. Can't go wrong with the official terminology.

D) available-to-promise makes the most sense to me. It represents the uncommitted portion of the inventory and production plan.
