Chapter 20, Problem 20.22E
Economic order quantity, effect of parameter changes (continuation of 20-21). Sportsman Textiles (ST) manufactures the Galaxy jerseys that Wonder Line (WL) sells to its customers. ST has recently Installed computer software that enables its customers to conduct “one-stop” purchasing using state-of-the-art Web site technology. WL’s ordering cost per purchase order will be $40 using this new technology.
- 1. Calculate the EOQ for the Galaxy jerseys using the revised ordering cost of $40 per purchase order. Assume all other data from Exercise 20-21 are the same. Comment on the result.
Required
- 2. Suppose ST proposes to “assist” WL. ST will allow WL customers to order directly from the ST Web site. ST would ship directly to these customers. ST would pay $12 to WL for every Galaxy jersey purchased by one of WL’s customers. Comment qualitatively on how this offer would affect inventory management at WL. What factors should WL consider in deciding whether to accept ST’s proposal?
20-21 Economic order quantity for retailer. Wonder Line (WL) operates a megastore featuring sports merchandise. It uses an EOQ decision model to make inventory decisions. It is now considering inventory decisions for its Los Angeles Galaxy soccer jerseys product line. This is a highly popular item. Data for 2017 are as follows:
| Expected annual demand for Galaxy jerseys | 9,000 |
| Ordering cost per purchase order | $250 |
| Carrying cost per year | $8 per jersey |
Each jersey costs WL $50 and sells for $100. The $8 carrying cost per jersey per year consists of the required return on investment of $5.00 (10% × $50 purchase price) plus $3.00 in relevant insurance, handling, and storage costs. The purchasing lead time is 5 days. WL is open 365 days a year.
- 1. Calculate the EOQ.
Required
- 2. Calculate the number of orders that will be placed each year.
- 3. Calculate the reorder point.

This problem continues the Piedmont Computer Problem situation from Chapter 20. Piedmont Computer Company manufactures personal computers and tablets. Based on the latest information from the cost accountant, using the current sales mix, the weighted-average sales price per unit is $750 and the weighed-average variable cost per unit is $450. The company does not expect the sales mix to vary for the next year. Assume the beginning balance in Finished Goods Inventory is $0. Additional data for the first month of 2020:

◆ Plan A: Produce at a steady rate (equal to minimum require-ments) of 1,000 units per month and subcontract additional
units at a $60 per unit premium cost.◆ Plan B: Vary the workforce, to produce the prior month’sdemand. The fi rm produced 1,300 units in June. The cost ofhiring additional workers is $3,000 per 100 units produced.The cost of layoff s is $6,000 per 100 units cut back.

The company’s forecasted income statement for the year, before any special orders, is as follows: Fixed costs included in the forecasted income statement are $400,000 in manufacturing cost of goods sold and $200,000 in selling expenses. A new client placed a special order with Deuce, offering to buy 1,000 tennis rackets for $100.00 each. The company will incur no additional selling expenses if it accepts the special order. Assuming that Deuce has sufficient capacity to manufacture 1,000 more tennis rackets, by what amount would differential income increase (decrease) as a result of accepting the special order?

- Make or Buy - Home Grocery (HG) provides home delivery of groceries. Customers submit orders to the HG website by selecting the needed items from a menu. Currently, HG has employees who deliver the groceries, but the company is considering the option of contracting out deliveries. The fixed cost of the grocery delivery operation is $500,000 per year, of which, $200,000 is avoidable if grocery deliveries are contracted out. A statistical study suggests delivery costs vary with both the number of customers and the number of items purchased. On average, the fixed annual delivery cost per customer is $250 and the average variable delivery cost of each grocery item delivered is $0.50. On average, each customer purchases 1,000 grocery items per year. Therefore, if there are 2,000 customers budgeted, the number of grocery item deliveries will be 2 million.
