(EOQ calculations) A downtown bookstore is trying to determine the optimal order quantity for a popular novel just printed in paperback. The store feels that the book will sell at four
times its hardback figures. It would, therefore, sell approximately 2,000 copies in the next year at a price of $1.50. The store buys the book at a wholesale figure of $1. Costs for
carrying the book are estimated at $0.25 a copy per year, and it costs $25 to order more books.
a. Determine the EOQ.
b. What would be the total costs for ordering the books 1, 4, 5, 10, and 15 times a year?
c. What questionable assumptions are being made by the EOQ model?
a. What is the economic order quantity (EOQ)?
copies (Round to the nearest whole number.)

Use the information for the question(s) below.Food For Less (FFL), a grocery store, is considering offering one hour photo developing in their store. The firm expects that sales from the new one hour machine will be $150,000 per year. FFL currently offers overnight film processing with annual sales of $100,000. While many of the one hour photo sales will be to new customers, FFL estimates that 60% of their current overnight photo customers will switch and use the one hour service. The level of incremental sales associated with introducing the new one hour photo service is closest to:
A. $60,000
B. $90,000
C. $150,000
D. $120,000

While many of the one hour photo sales will be to new customers, FFL estimates that 60% of their current overnight photo customers will switch and use the one hour service. Suppose that of the 60% of FFL's current overnight photo customers, half would start taking their film to a competitor that offers one hour photo processing if FFL fails to offer the one hour service. The level of incremental sales in this case is closest to:
A. $150,000
B. $120,000
C. $60,000
D. $90,000

- Suppose Stanley's Office Supply purchases 50,000 boxes of pens every year. Ordering costs are $100 per order, carrying costs are 5% of the inventory value, and the price is of $2.00 per box. The vendor now offers a quantity discount of 1% per box if the company buys pens in order sizes of 20,000 boxes. Should the company accept the quantity discount? Show your calculations to justify your decision.arrow_forwardYou are thinking of opening a small copy shop. It costs $5500 to rent a copier for a year, and it costs $0.03 per copy to operate the copier. Other fixed costs of running the store will amount to $450 per month. You plan to charge an average of $0.10 per copy, and the store will be open 365 days per year. Each copier can make up to 100,000 copies per year. a) For a charge per copy between $0.07 to $0.11 and daily demands of 500, 1000, 1500, and 2000 copies per day, find annual profit. That is, find annual profit for eachof these combinations of charge per copy and daily demand. b) If you charge 0.09 per copy, what daily demand for copies will allow you to break even? c) Graph profit as a function for a charge per copy (between $0.07 to $0.11) for a daily demand of 500 copies; for a daily demand of 2000 copies.
