Crawford Steel Corp. buys inventory of 40,000 units annually. The purchase price per unit is $3.00 and delivery time takes 2 weeks after the order is placed. The ordering cost is $40 per order. The storing and insurance cost of the inventory per quarter is 20 percent of the purchase price. Based on the sales records, it normally maintains its safety stock of 4,500 units. Order should be placed in 100 units and 50 weeks is in a year. Calculate:
the economic order quantity.
the total cost of holding inventory.
the inventory level should reorder be made.
the number of orders that will be placed annually.
A company starts the year with twenty units of inventory costing $20 each. In January, ten of these units are sold for $40 each. Then, ten new units are bought for $22 each. Shortly thereafter, ten units are sold for $50 each. Then, ten units are bought for $27 each. Finally, near the end of the year, ten units are sold for $60 each.
If a weighted average (periodic) system is in use, the cost of ending inventory is:
If a weighted average (perpetual) system is in use, the cost of ending inventory is:

On the screen is a column chart showing ending inventory costs. During a deflationary period, which bar (A, B, or C) represents FIFO costing, which represents LIFO costing, and which represents weighted average? Explain your reasoning. On January 4 following year-end, Rio Enterprises received a shipment of 60 units of product costing 580 each. These units had been ordered by Del in December and had been shipped to him on December 27. They were shipped FOB shipping point. Revise the FIFOLIFO3 worksheet to include this shipment. Preview the printout to make sure that the worksheet will print neatly on one page, and then print the worksheet. Save the completed file as FIFOLIFOT. Using the FIFOLIFO3 file, prepare a 3-D bar (stacked) chart showing the cost of goods sold and ending inventory under each of the four inventory cost flow assumptions. No Chart Data Table is needed. Use the values in the Calculations Section of the worksheet for your chart. Enter your name somewhere on the chart. Save the file again as FIFOLIFO3. Print the chart.arrow_forward
- Sterling Corporation has an EOQ of 5,000 units. The company uses an average of 500 units per day. An order to replenish the part requires a lead time of five days. Required: 1. Calculate the reorder point, using Equation 20.3. 2. Graphically display the reorder point, where the vertical axis is inventory (units) and the horizontal axis is time (days). Show two replenishments, beginning at time zero with the economic order quantity in inventory. 3. What if the average usage per day of the part is 500 units but a daily maximum usage of 575 units is possible? What is the reorder point when this demand uncertainty exists?arrow_forwardChassen Company, a cracker and cookie manufacturer, has the following unit costs for the month of June: A total of 100,000 units were manufactured during June, of which 10,000 remain in ending inventory. Chassen uses the first-in, first-out (FIFO) inventory method, and the 10,000 units are the only finished goods inventory at June 30. Under the absorption costing concept, the value of Chassens June 30 finished goods inventory would be: a. 50,000. b. 70,000. c. 85,000. d. 145,000.arrow_forwardCrescent Company produces stuffed toy animals; one of these is Arabeau the Cow. Each Arabeau takes 0.20 yard of fabric (white with irregular black splotches) and eight ounces of polyfiberfill. Fabric costs 3.50 per yard and polyfiberfill is 0.05 per ounce. Crescent has budgeted production of Arabeaus for the next four months as follows: Inventory policy requires that sufficient fabric be in ending monthly inventory to satisfy 20 percent of the following months production needs and sufficient polyfiberfill be in inventory to satisfy 40 percent of the following months production needs. Inventory of fabric and polyfiberfill at the beginning of October equals exactly the amount needed to satisfy the inventory policy. Each Arabeau produced requires (on average) 0.10 direct labor hour. The average cost of direct labor is 15 per hour. Required: 1. Prepare a direct materials purchases budget of fabric for the last quarter of the year showing purchases in units and in dollars for each month and for the quarter in total. 2. Prepare a direct materials purchases budget of polyfiberfill for the last quarter of the year showing purchases in units and in dollars for each month and for the quarter in total. 3. Prepare a direct labor budget for the last quarter of the year showing the hours needed and the direct labor cost for each month and for the quarter in total.arrow_forward
