Compute the projected profit for the order quantities suggested by the management team under three scenarios: worst case in which sales = 10,000 units, most likely case in which sales = 20,000 units, and best case in which sales = 30,000 units. The order quantity should have a 70% chance of meeting demand and only a 30% chance of stock-outs. What quantity would be ordered under this policy, and what is the projected profit under the three sales scenarios?

Watch Entice sells high end watches. The annual demand for the company’s product is 57,000 units.Ordering costs are $500 per order and carrying costs are $90 per unit, including $40 in the opportunitycost of holding inventory. It currently takes 2 weeks to supply an order to the store. The following tableshows the probability distribution of various demand levels during the 2-week purchase-order lead time:Total Demand Probability of Demand800 0.05900 0.21,000 0.51,100 0.21,200 0.05   Watch Entice does not hold any safety stock.

Daniel Grady is the financial advisor for a number of professional athletes. An analysis of the long-term goals for many of these athletes has resulted in a recommendation to purchase stocks with some of their income that is set aside for investments. Five stocks have been identified as having very favorable expectations for future performance.  Although the expected return is important in these investments, the risk, as measured by the beta of the stock, is also important. (A high value of beta indicates that the stock has a relatively high risk.) The expected return and the betas for five stocks are as follows: Stock 1 2 3 4 5 Expected Return (%) 11.0 9.0 6.5 15.0 13.0 Beta 1.20 0.85 0.55 1.40 1.25   Daniel would like to minimize the beta of the stock portfolio (calculated using a weighted average of the amounts put into the different stocks) while maintaining an expected return of at least 11%. Since future conditions may change, Daniel…

A jewelry manufacturer is creating a routine order schedule for some new products: J66 and J67.  J66 can be ordered any time.  J67 is set up to be ordered every 4 weeks.  The company is closed 2 weeks out of a 52 week year otherwise it is open. Given the following, show me the calculation (I have provided the final answer) the questions at the end: J66 acceptable stockout risk = 2.5%, lead time = 2 weeks, ordering cost =$70, annual holding cost = 30%, unit cost =$15, standard deviation = 4 units per week, and average weekly demand is 60 units. J67 acceptable  stockout risk = 2.5%, lead time = 2 weeks, ordering cost =$30, annual holding cost = 30%, unit cost =$20, standard deviation = 5 units per week, and average weekly demand is 70  units.  I know the reorder point for j67 is 153 units on hand.  1) Show me the math to come up with the 153 units answer. 2) What is the reorder point for the J66? (I know the answer is 306 units so show me the calculation), 3) If the J67 has 110 units on…
