PROBLEMS 1. Lead time for oneness of Montegut Manufacturings fastest moving products is 4 days. Demand during this period averages ampere-second units per day. What would be an appropriate re-order catch? Re-order point = crave during lead time = 100 units/day * 4 days = 400 units. 2. Montegut Manufacturing produces a product for which the annual necessity is 10,000 units. Production averages 100 per day, while demand is 40 per day. Holding lives are $1. 00 per unit per year set-up monetary values $200. 00. If they wish to produce this product in economic batches, what size batch should be used?What is the maximum inventory level? How umpteen order cycles are there per year? How very much does circumspection of this good in inventory appeal the firm for each one year? This problem requires economic order quantity, noninstantaneous delivery. picor 1826 units. The maximum inventory level is picor 1095 units. There are approximately pic cycles per year. yearly inventory mana gement costs total pic= $2,190. 89 or $2,191. 3. Central University uses $123,000 of a particular toner cartridge for laser printers in the student computer labs each year.The purchasing film director of the university estimates the ordering cost at $45 and thinks that the university can hold this type of inventory at an annual storage cost of 22% of the purchase price. How umteen months supply should the purchasing director order at one time to minimize the total annual cost of purchasing and carrying? First, organise the EOQ from the data provided. In this problem, the units are dollars, and the price of each is 1. pic One months usage is 123000/12 = $10,250. EOQ = 7094. Months usage = 7094/10250 = 0. 9, or about three workweeks usage. (This is back up by the order frequency of 17 per year). 4. The soft goods department of a bombastic department store sells clxxv units per month of a certain large bath towel. The unit cost of a towel to the store is $2. 50 and the cost of pl acing an order has been estimated to be $12. 00. The store uses an inventory carrying fight of 27% per year. mend the optimal order quantity, order frequency, and the annual cost of inventory management. If, through automation of the purchasing process, the ordering cost can be cut to $4. 0, what impart be the new economic order quantity, order frequency, and annual inventory management cost? Explain these results. Annual demand is 175 x 12 = 2100. At S=$12, the EOQ is 273 units, and there are about 8 orders per year. Annual costs of inventory management are $184. 44. These results are fine in the calculations below. pic pic pic At S=$4, EOQ falls to 158, and order frequency rises to 13. Annual inventory management costs fall to $106. 48.

The cost of carrying one unit in inventory f or that period is 50 cents. The company buys the paper from a wholesaler in the alike town, sending its own truck to strip up the orders at a fixed cost of $20. 00 per trip. Treating this cost as the order cost, what is the optimum number of reams to buy at one time? How many times should divide of this size be bought during this period?What is the minimum cost of maintaining inventory on this item for the period? Of this total cost, how much is carrying cost and how much is ordering cost? This is an EOQ problem, even though the time period is not a year. All that is required is that the demand value and the carrying cost share the same time reference. This will require approximately 3. 5 orders per period. Setup costs and carrying costs are each $70. 71, and the annual total is $141. 42. pic pic Carrying cost =pic setup cost = picOperation MagementPROBLEMS 1.
