Assume the demand for a company’s drug Wozac during the current year is 50,000, and assume demand will grow at 5% a year. If the company builds a plant that can produce x units of Wozac per year,it will cost $16x. Each unit of Wozac is soldfor $3. Each unit of Wozac produced -incurs a variable production cost of $0.20. It costs $0.40 per year to operate a unit of capacity.Determine how large a Wozac plant the company should build to maximize its-expected profit over the next 10 years.
A retired couple supplement their income by making fruit pies, which they sell to a local grocery store. During the month of September, they produce apple and grape pies. The apple pies are sold for 2.00 to the grocer, and the grape pies are sold for 4.00. The couple is able to sell all of the pies they produce owing to their high quality. They use fresh ingredients. Flour and sugar are purchased once each month. For the month of September, they have 2100 cups of sugar and 3000 cups of flour. Each apple pie requires 1 1/2 cups of sugar and 3 cups of flour, and each grape pie requires 2 cups of sugar and 3 cups of flour. a. determine the number of grape and the number of apple pies that will maximize revenues if the couple working together can make and apple pie in 6 minutes and a grape pie in 3 minutes.…

I need a detailed assistance to solve this problem in: Operations Analysis. 3) A chemical manufacturer produces a compound at the rate of 10,000 pounds a day over 250 days each year. Annual demand for that compound is 600,000 pounds per year, and each pound sells for $3.90. There is a fixed setup cost of $1,500 for each production run, and a variable cost of $3.50 for each pound produced. The following costs are incurred: Interest rate on the cost of capital is 22% per annum (annually). Storage and handling costs amount to 12% of the compounds cost per annum. a)- What is the optimal production lot for the compound (write down the model name, its parameters and formula)? b)- Compute the uptime, downtime and cycle time in days, and find the cycle fraction of uptime and the cycle fraction of downtime (include the formula). c)- What are average annual holding and setup costs for the compound (include the formula)? d) - What is the annual profit for this compound?
The "Footcandy" shoes store supplies men's black formal shoes. Every 3 months the "Footcandy" shoes store can sell approximately 500 pairs of shoes at a constant price. The store is currently ordering 500 everytime they order. It costs $ 30 to place the order. 20% is the annual rate for the storage fee. With an order of 500 pairs of shoes, the store got the lowest price at $ 28 per pair. The order quantity discounts offered by the manufacturer are as follows Quantity Price 1 0-99 $36 2 100-199 $32 3 200-299 $30 4 300 $28 a. What is the minimum cost order amount for the shoes? b. What is the annual savings from Footcandy Store?
A hospital orders its thermometers from a hospitalsupply firm. The cost per thermometer depends on the ordersize q, as shown in Table 6. The annual holding cost is 25%of the purchasing cost. Let EOQ80 be the EOQ if the costper thermometer is 80¢, and let EOQ79 be the EOQ if thecost per thermometer is 79¢.a Explain why EOQ79 will be larger than EOQ80. b Explain why the optimal order quantity must be ei-ther EOQ79, EOQ80, or 100. c If EOQ80 100, show that the optimal order quan-tity must be EOQ79. d If EOQ80 100 and EOQ79 100, show that theoptimal order quantity must be either EOQ80 or 100.e If EOQ80 100 and EOQ79 100, show that the optimal order quantity must be EOQ79.
ABC firm uses roughly 3,400 pounds of chemical dye a year. Currently, the firm purchases 300 pounds per order and pays P120.00 per pound. The supplier has just announced that orders of 1,000 pounds or more will be filled at a price of P80.00 per pound. The manufacturing firm incurs a cost of P4,000.00 each time it submits an order and assigns an annual holding cost of 17% of the purchase price per pound. a. Determine the order size that will minimize the total cost.b. If the supplier offered the discount at 1,500 pounds instead of 1,000 pounds, what order size would minimize total cost?
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).

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)?
