Rocky Mountain Tire Centre sells 20,000 tires of a particular type per year. The ordering cost for each order is $40, and the holding cost is 20% of the purchase price of the tires per year. The purchase price is $20. per tire if fewer than 500 tires are ordered, $18. Per tire if more than 500 but fewer than 1,000 tires are ordered and $17. per tire if 1,000 or more tires are ordered. Quantity Unit Price 1-499 $20. 500-999 $18. 1000 & over $17 Based on available information, lead time demand for CD-ROM drives averages 50 units (normally distributed), with a standard deviation of 5 drives. Management wants a 97% service level. What value of Z should be applied? How many drives should be carried as safety stock?

Pingu Company manufactures winter jackets. Setup costs are $2.00. Penguin manufactures 4,000 jackets evenly throughout the year. Using the economic order quantity approach, the optimal production run would be 200 when the cost of carrying one jacket in inventory for one year is 0.40. The given solution is this: 200 = 2*setup cost* Annual Demand / Carrying cost200 = 2*2*4000/ Carrying cost40000 = 16000 / Carrying costCarrying cost = 16000 / 40000Carrying Cost = 0.4 Hence, the cost of carrying one jacket in inventory for one year is 0.4 QUESTION: How did you get the 40,000 (that was divided to 16,000)?
ABC Company has correctly computed its economic order quantity at 1,000 units; however, management feels it would rather order in quantities of 1,500 units. How should ABC’s total annual purchase order cost and total annual carrying cost for an order quantity of 1,500 units compare to the respective amounts for an order quantity of 1,000 units? A. Lower purchase order cost and lower carrying cost B. Lower purchase order cost and higher carrying cost C. Higher purchase order cost and higher carrying cost D. Higher purchase order cost and lower carrying costs
The annual demand for a product of XYZ company is 12.000. The cost of ordering this product is CU25 and the holding cost is CU0.5/(piece year). The company in question wishes to follow the "Pending Order" stock policy and the holding cost is CU5/(piece year). The lead time for this product is 2 days and it is worked for 300 days a year. In this case, calculate the economic order quantity, the highest pending order quantity and the highest stock level
Consider a firm that knows that the price of the productit is ordering is going to increase permanently by $X. Howmuch of the product should be ordered before the priceincrease goes into effect?Here is one approach to this question: Suppose the firmorders Q units before the price increase goes into effect.a What extra holding cost is incurred by ordering Qunits now?b How much in purchasing costs is saved by orderingQ units now?c What value of Q maximizes purchasing cost savingsless extra holding costs?d Suppose that annual demand is 1,000 units, holdingcost per unit-year is $7.50, and the price of the item isgoing to increase by $10. How large an order should beplaced before the price increase goes into effect?
A component used in a manufacturing facility is ordered from an outside supplier.Because the component is used in a variety of end products, the demand is high.

A company manufactures 5,000 units of a product per month. The cost of placing an order is Rs. 100. The purchase price of the raw material is Rs. 10 per kg. The re-order period is 4 to 8 weeks. The consumption of raw materials varies from 100 kg to 450 kg per week, the average consumption being 275 kg The carrying cost of inventory is 20% per annum. You are required to calculate- (a) Re-order Quantity (b) Re order Level (c) Maximum Level (d) Minimum Level le) Average Stock Level
