- The chapter presented various approaches for the control of inventory investment. Discuss three additional approaches not included that might involve supply chain managers.Golden Crust Bakery buys flour in 25-pound bags. The bakery uses an average of 1,215 bags ayear. Preparing an order and receiving a shipment of flour involves a cost of $10 per order.Annual holding costs are $75 per bag. Once an order for flour is placed, it takes six (6) days toreceive the order from the flour factory. The bakery operates 350 days per year.Calculate the following:(i) Economic Order Quantity(ii) Expected number of orders (Order Frequency)(iii) Average inventory(iv) The annual holding cost(v) The annual ordering cost(vi) The total annual cost of inventory management(vii) Reorder point(viii) If holding costs were to increase by $9 per year, how much would thataffect the minimum total annual cost?Fisk Corporation is trying to improve its inventory control system and has installed an online computer at its retail stores. Fisk anticipates sales of 97,200 units per year, an ordering cost of $4 per order, and carrying costs of $1.50 per unit. What is the economic ordering quantity?

- As the Manager of Branson’s Department Store, you are responsible for ensuring that reorder quantities for the various items have been correctly established. You decide to test one item and choose product Z. A continuous review inventory policy has been used, so you examine this as well as other records and come up with the following data: Cost per unit $35 Holding cost 20 percent of unit cost Average daily demand 10 units Ordering cost $30 per order Standard deviation of daily demand 3 units Delivery lead time 4 days Because customers generally do not wait but go elsewhere, you decide on a service probability of 90 percent. Assume that Branson’s Department Store operates 320 days per year. [What is the annual demand (D)? Determine the optimal order quantity, Q*. Determine the reorder point (R) if demand is constant. Determine the reorder point (R) if demand is varies.Green Grass Industries Limited (GGIL) has used a fixed-time period inventory system that involved taking a complete inventory count of all items each month. However, increasing labor costs, are forcing GGIL, to examine alternative ways to reduce the amount of labor involved in inventory stockrooms, yet without increasing other costs, such a shortage costs. Table 10 is a random sample of 20 GGIL's items. Table 10. Annual Usage by Value of a sample of GGIL's Inventory Item Number Annual Usage ($) Item Number Annual Usage ($) 1 10,600 11 2,750 2 14,000 12 1,400 3 4,000 13 3,200 4 16,000 14 2,500 5 8,100 15 110,000 1,800 16 14,800 7 84,000 17 9,500 8. 890 18 1,700 9 940 19 3,700 10 94,000 20 12,500 a) What would you recommend GGIL to do to cut back its labor cost? (Illustrate using an ABC plan). b) Item 18 is critical to continued operations at GGIL. i. How would you recommend it be classified? ii. Give the reason(s) for your answer.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?

LAA company operates for 50 weeks a year and uses a fixed quantity inventory system for one of its most important items. Below are the characteristics for the item: Weekly demand follows normal distribution: mean of 400 units and standard deviation of 100 units Order Cost = $40 per order Annual Holding cost = $2/unit/year Desired service level = 95% (z = 1.645) Lead Time = 4 weeks Economic Order Quantity (EOO) = 894 units Now suppose that the management is considering switching to a fixed time inventory system where the time between orders is 2 weeks. Everything else being the same as the information provided for the original problem, which system (Q or P system) is likely to have more safety stock? Please explain why.
- Question 1 For supply item ABC, Andrews Company has been ordering 400 units per week. A new purchasing agent has been hired by the company who wants to start using the economic-order- quantity method and its supporting decision elements.
