Reorder PointConsider an economic order quantity case where annual demand D = 1,000 units, economic order quantity Q = 200 units, the desired probability of not stocking out P = .95, the standard deviation of demand during lead time σL = 25 units, and lead time L = 15 days. Determine the reorder point. Assume that demand is over a 250-workday year.
The Warren W. Fisher Computer Corporation purchases 8,000transistors each year as components in minicomputers. The unit
cost of each transistor is $10, and the cost of carrying one tran-sistor in inventory for a year is $3. Ordering cost is $30 per order.
What are (a) the optimal order quantity, (b) the expectednumber of orders placed each year, and (c) the expected timebetween orders? Assume that Fisher operates on a 200-dayworking year.
A hospital must order the drug Porapill from DaisyDrug Company. It costs $500 to place an order and $30 toreview the hospital’s inventory of the drug. Annual demandfor the drug is N(10,000, 640,000), and it costs $5 to holdone unit in inventory for one year. Orders arrive one monthafter being placed. Assume that all shortages are backlogged.a Estimate R and the number of orders per year thatshould be placed.b Using the answer in part (a), determine the optimal(R, S) inventory policy. Assume that the shortage costper unit of the drug is $100.

Upon checking on Catlea's supplier, it takes 8 days in between placing an order and eventually receiving it. a. Determine the Economic Order Quantityb. Determine the number of order per monthc. Determine the reorder pointarrow_forwardEconomic Order Quantity (EOQ) is a method used to calculate the ideal quantity to order. The underlying concepts of EOQ is the balance between ordering cost and holding cost. Q1. Using the data points given below, perform two calculations: Q2. Use an excel file to calculate the EOQ order. Make sure to use the formula bar to create the EQO formula. Make an excel file similar to the image attached. A = annual demand = 20,000 Cp = Cost of an order which includes preparing and following up the order = $100.00 Ch = Unit inventory cost per year or item cost (P) $100 times annual carrying cost rate (r) (25%)arrow_forward
- 1. Forrest and Dan make boxes of chocolates for which the demand is uncertain. Forrest says, "That's life." On the other hand, Dan believes that some demand patterns exist that could be useful for planning the purchase of sugar, chocolate, and shrimp. Forrest insists on placing a surprise chocolate-covered shrimp in some boxes so that "You never know what you'll get." Quarterly demand (in boxes of chocolates) for the last three years is shown in the table below: b. If the expected sales for chocolates are 14,400 cases for year 4, use the multiplicative seasonal method to prepare a forecast for each quarter of the year. (Round all intermediate calculations to two decimal places.) The first quarter forecast is what? boxes of chocolates.
