Use the following information for the next 3 problems: ABC Company plans to construct a 60,000 sq. ft private warehouse and rent public warehouse as needed. Warehouse inventory turns at the rate of 2 times per month. One pound of merchandise occupies 0.2 cubic feet of warehouse space and can be stacked 10 feet high. Given aisles, and normal operating efficiency, only 50 percent of the total warehouse space is actually used for storage. Assume the facility is being built to size so no additional space is allowed for future product growth. A private warehouse can be constructed for $36 per sq. ft. and can be amortized over 20 years. Annual fixed costs amount to $20 per sq. ft. of total space. The cost of operation is $0.03 per pound of throughput. Space may also be rented for a storage charge on inventory of $0.06 per pound per month and a handling charge of $0.05 per pound of throughput. Monthly demands for a typical year are as follows: Month Demand (lb) Jan 2,000,000…
