Chapter 12, Problem 45P
Summary Introduction
To show: The way the answer changes for the optimal ordering policy when the store needs to satisfy a 95% service level of the meeting the customer demands on time. Also, identify the penalty cost ‘p’ to which the service level requirement is equal to.
Inventory and supply chain models:
The functions of inventory and supply chain are one of the most important business decision areas for an organization. The first important aspect of these concepts is to have adequate inventory on hand. The second important aspect is to carry a little amount of inventory as possible.

Economic Production Quantity (EPQ)
TC = D * C + (D / Q) * S + (Imax / 2) * H
A bicycle manufacturer uses 50,000 wheels per year for its popular cycle. The firm can make its own wheels, which it can produce at 600 per day. Assembly is uniform numbers over the entire year. The carrying cost is $1.00 per wheel per year, and the setup cost for a production run of wheels is $45. Consider that the plant operates 250 days per year, what is the order quantity and Imax?
Using the same numbers, calculate the Average Inventory per day to determine inventory performance.
A retailer uses a periodic review order-up-to model to control the inventory of one of its high volume products. Average demand is 2580 units per week with a standard deviation of 1270. The review period is 5 weeks, the lead time is 11 weeks, and the safety factor used is 0.61. How many stockouts should the retailer expect for this product next year?
A grocer carries 9,300 different items in their store. In a normal week, demand occurs for 4,900 of these items. Of those 4,900 items,
175 are not available for the entire week and another 330 items are available for only part of the week.
Round your answer as a percentage rounded to one decimal place.
What is the grocer's in-stock probability during a normal week?

- Suppose the demand of a product in a retail store is 800 per year and it occurs at a constant rate. Placement of an order of this product to an outside supplier by the store is 40 Dollar. The super market authority has calculated the inventory holding cost per unit per year as 90 cents. Assuming no occurrence of shortages of the product, find i. the minimal number of orders per year. Explain whether the nearest integer number of orders per year is justified. Please answer this part with the explanation part asked in the question.arrow_forwardA fish restaurant sells fish for 50$ per kg and buys it from the suppliers for 10$ per kg. Fish that were not sold during the day go bad. A manager has estimated that daily demand for fish is normally distributed with a mean of 20kg and a standard deviation of 5 kg. The manager has to decide how much fish to order per day. Find a profit-maximizing order.arrow_forward13 Pam’s demand for hats is normally distributed with mean 500 and standard deviation 100.

The ketchup costs $3.00 per bottle and is served only in whole bottles because its taste quickly deteriorates. The restaurant figures that it costs $10.00 each time an order is placed, and holding costs are 20 percent of the purchase price. It takes 3 weeks for an order to arrive. The restaurant operates 50 weeks per year. The restaurant would like to use an inventory system that minimizes inventory cost.

- I will upvote if solved correctlyarrow_forwardAnswer the given question with a proper explanation and step-by-step solution. An E-commerce firm has four regional fulfillment centers (warehouses). Weekly demand for an item (Product_A) at each warehouse is random and is normally distributed with a mean of 10,000 per week and a standard deviation of 2,000 units per week. Product_A’s unit cost is $10. The inventory holding cost of the company is 25% per year. Assume 50 weeks per year. Each replenishment order from the supplier of Product_A costs $1,000, which includes the costs associated with placing the order, transportation, receiving, inspection, and put-away labor expenses. The replenishment lead time from the supplier is 1 week. The company’s service level goal is 95% (probability of having sufficient inventory to meet demand). On average, how long does a unit of inventory spend in the warehouse before being sold?
