Question 5 Which pattern would you use in the following situation: you have a Product class which knows its own inventory. It should behave differently when it has inventory vs when it doesn't (e.g. a getPrice method returns "$5.99" or "Out of Stock"). Think about which class should be responsible for choosing the behavior in this case. 1) Strategy 2) Observer 3) State Question 8 MVC's big advantage is that you don't need to tie communications between a UI and a data model to a specific implementation. True / False?
Bigby Riggs sells high-end art frames that are ordered every Thursday to prepare for next week's demand. The most popular frame style is sold at $50 per unit and it costs Bigby $35 per piece. If too many art frames are ordered, Bigby incurs an inventory carrying cost of $2 per frame. If Bigby runs out of stock for the week, he forgoes the profits from missed sales. Bigby has the option to order 100, 150, or 200 art frames to meet next week's demand which can be either 100, 150, or 200 frames. Based on historical demand, Bigby has determined the following probability information: P(100) = 0.4, P(150) = 0.3, P(200) = 0.3 What is the Expected Monetary Value of your best alternative?

A manager of a firm receives a forecast of a component for the next year. The usage rate of the component is projected to be normal 1250 units per month with a standard deviation of 5 units per day. The lead time to procure a lot is 6 days. The annual holding cost is $3 per unit, and it costs an estimated $64 to process an order. The firm operates 25 days per month. a. Determine an order size that will minimize the sum of ordering and carrying costs. b. Calculate the annual minimum inventory cost. c. What amount of safety stock would provide a stock-out risk of 3 percent? d. If the supplier is willing to offer a discount of $60 per order for ordering a minimum of 1500 units, would you advise the manager to take advantage of the offer?
Q2) Groundz Coffee Shop uses 4 kgs of a specialty tea weekly; each kg costs $16. Carrying costs are $1 per kg per week because space is very scarce. It costs the firm $8 to prepare an order. Assume 52 weeks per year. How many kgs of tea should Groundz order at a time? What is total annual cost. How many orders should Groundz place annually.

The materials manager for a billiard ball maker must periodically place orders for resin, one of the raw materials used in producing billiard balls. She knows that manufacturing uses resin at a rate of 50 kilograms each day, and that it costs $.04 per day to carry a kilogram of resin in inventory. She also knows that the order costs for resin are $100 per order, and that the lead time for delivery is four days. If the order size was 1,000 kilograms of resin, what would be the average inventory level?
David’s Delicatessen flies in Hebrew National salamis regularly to satisfy a growing demand for the salamis in Silicon Valley. The owner, David Gold, estimatesthat the demand for the salamis is pretty steady at 175 per month. The salamis costGold $1.85 each. The fixed cost of calling his brother in New York and having thesalamis flown in is $200. It takes three weeks to receive an order. Gold’s accountant, Irving Wu, recommends an annual cost of capital of 22 percent, a cost of shelfspace of 3 percent of the value of the item, and a cost of 2 percent of the value fortaxes and insurance.a. How many salamis should Gold have flown in and how often should he orderthem?

The Chemco Company uses a highly toxic chemical in oneof its manufacturing processes. It must have the productdelivered by special cargo trucks designed for safe shipment of chemicals. As such, ordering (and delivery) costsare relatively high, at $3600 per order. The chemical product is packaged in 1-gallon plastic containers. The cost ofholding the chemical in storage is $50 per gallon per year.The annual demand for the chemical, which is constantover time, is 7,000 gallons per year. The lead time fromtime of order placement until receipt is 10 days. The company operates 310 working days per year. Compute theoptimal order quantity, total minimum inventory cost, andthe reorder point.
Famous Albert prides himself on being the Cookie King of the West. Small, freshly baked cookies are the specialty of his shop. Famous Albert has asked for help to determine the number of cookies he should make each day. From an analysis of past demand, he estimates demand for cookies as DEMAND PROBABILITY OF DEMAND 1,800 dozen 0.05 2,000 0.10 2,200 0.20 2,400 0.30 2,600 0.20 2,800 0.10 3,000 0.05 Each dozen sells for $0.69 and costs $0.49, which includes handling and transportation. Cookies that are not sold at the end of the day are reduced to $0.29 and sold the following day as day-old merchandise. Compute the expected profit or loss for each cookie making decision quantity. (Round your answers to the nearest whole number. Enter expected losses with a negative sign) Based on your answers to part a., what is the optimal number of cookies to make? By using marginal analysis, what is the optimal number of cookies to make?
