Tristan, Inc., uses the LIFO cost-flow assumption to value inventory. It began the current year with 2,000 units of inventory carried at LIFO cost of $20 per unit. During the first quarter, it purchased 8,000 units at an average cost of $40 per unit and sold 9,500 units at $60 per unit.Assume the company expects to replace the units of beginning inventory sold in April at a cost of $45 per unit and expects inventory at year-end to be between 2,100 and 2,500 units. What amount of cost of goods sold should be recorded for the quarter ended March 31?a. $335,000b. $350,000c. $380,000d. $387,500
Quick-Copy Duplicating Company uses 110,000 reams of standard-size paper a year at its
various duplicating centers. Its current paper supplier charges $2.00 per ream. Annual inventory
carrying costs are 15 percent of inventory value. The costs of placing and receiving an order of
paper are $41.25. Assuming that inventory replenishment occurs virtually instantaneously,
determine the following:
a. The firm's EOQ
b. The total annual inventory costs of this policy
c. The optimal ordering frequency
d. Compute and plot ordering costs, carrying costs, and total inventory costs for order quantities
of 2,000, 4,000, 5,000, 5,500, 6,000, 7,000, and 9,000 reams. Connect the points on each
function with a smooth curve, and determine the EOQ from the graph (and the table used in
constructing the graph).
A store sells a product that has the annual demand of 16,156 units. It purchases the product from
supplier A for
$74.4 per unit. The unit inventory carrying cost per year is 14 percent of the unit purchase cost.
The cost to
place and process an order from the supplier is $107 per order. Supplier A has a delivery lead time
of 7 days.
The store operates 300 days a year. Assume EOQ model is appropriate. What is the optimal total
annual
inventory and purchase cost for the store?
Use at least 4 decimal places.
