Selected Answer: B

B. high-level product family plans into operational plans.** A **master production schedule (MPS)** is a detailed planning tool that translates high-level production plans (often at the product family or aggregate level) into specific operational plans for individual products or items. It breaks down the broader production goals into actionable schedules, specifying what needs to be produced, in what quantities, and when. This process is known as **disaggregation**, where high-level plans are converted into detailed, executable plans.
