- The chapter presented various approaches for the control of inventory investment. Discuss three additional approaches not included that might involve supply chain managers.You are in charge of inventory control of a highly successful product retailed by your firm. Weekly demand for this item varies, with an average of 350 units and a standard deviation of 15 units. It is purchased from a wholesaler at a cost of $25.00 per unit. The supply lead time is 7 weeks. Placing an order costs $55.00, and the inventory carrying rate per year is 15 percent of the item's cost. Your firm operates 6 days per week, 50 weeks per year.

Monthly demand for cans of white paint is normal with mean 28 and standard deviation 8. The replenishment lead time is 14 weeks. Excess demand is backordered, but costs $10 per back ordered can in labor and loss of goodwill. There is a fixed cost of $15 per order, and the holding cost is based on 30% interest rate per annum. In your computations, assume 4 weeks per month. - Write down the model name and parameters. - What are the optimal lot size and reorder points for white paint (include the formulas)? - What is the optimal safety stock (include the formula)? *** Suppose the paint shop from the above problem adopts a service level policy. - What are the optimal lot size and reorder points for white paint, such that 90% of the cycles are filled without backordering (include all formulas)? - What is the fill rate…

Placement of an order of this product to an outside supplier by the store is 40 Dollar. The super market authority has calculated the inventory holding cost per unit per year as 90 cents. Assuming no occurrence of shortages of the product, find i. the minimal number of orders per year. Explain whether the nearest integer number of orders per year is justified. Please answer this part with the explanation part asked in the question.Annual demand for a product is 13,000 units; weekly demand is 250 units with a standard deviation of 40 units. The cost of placing an order is $100, and the time from ordering to receipt is four weeks. The annual inventory carrying cost is $0.65 per unit. To provide a 98 percent service probability, what must the reorder point be? Suppose the production manager is told to reduce the safety stock of this item by 100 units. If this is done, what will the new service probability be?
