To determine: The total cost of the plan.
Introduction: The aggregate plan is the output of sales and operations planning. The major concern of aggregate planning is the production time and quantity for the intermediate future. Aggregate planning would encompass a time prospect of approximately 3 to 18 months.

- Question 4 b) Company ABC wishes to evaluate whether to produce a component internally or purchase from a vendor. The firm has the following options: Internal Production Process 1 Process 2 Purchase from Vendor Vendor 1 Vendor 2 Vendor 3 Variable cost of $17 per unit; annual fixed cost of $200,000 Variable cost of $14 per unit; annual fixed cost of $240,000 Offers a price of $20 per unit for any volume up to 30,000 units Offers a price of $22 per unit for 1,000 units or less, and $18 per unit for large quantities Offers a price of $21 per unit for the first 1,000 units and $19 per unit for additional units If the annual demand is 10,000 units, which alternative would be best from a cost standpoint? For 20,000 units, which alternative would be best?arrow_forwardQ7. The president of Rose Bowl Enterprises, Desmond Howard, projects the firms aggregate DEMAND requirements over the next 8 months as follows: These are the monthly DEMAND, not production. MONTH JAN FEB MAR APR MAY JUN JULY AUG DEMAND 1,400 1,600 1,800 1,800 2,200 2,200 1,800 1,800 PRODUCTION 1,600 from December INVENTORY 200 from Dec plus 200 His operations manager is considering a new plan, which begins in January with 200 units on hand. Stockout cost of lost sales is $100 per unit. Inventory holding cost is $20 per unit per month. Ignore any idle time costs. The plan is called plan A. Plan A: Vary the workforce level to execute a strategy that produces the quantity demanded in the prior month. The December demand was given as 1,600 units per month. Therefore, the production for JAN will be 1,600. However, only 1,400 are needed. Therefore, the extra 200 produced go into inventory and there is a holding cost for inventory. Also, per the above, you already have 200 units in inventory…arrow_forwardQuestion 2 - Rohe (Hong Kong) Ltd is a pharmaceutical company which manufactures and supplies various drugs for drug stores in Asia.
