Transcribed Image Text:1. Prepare a spreadsheet-based ABC analysis of usage value.
Classify as follows:
A items: top 20 per cent of usage value
B items: next 30 per cent of usage value
C items: remaining 50 per cent of usage value
You will need to plot cumulative usage value against the percentage of the sample
represented by that cumulative usage value. Note that you are working with a
sample of 20 inventory items, and so each item in the sample represents 5% of the
total.
2. Calculate the inventory weeks for each item, for each classification, and for
all the items in total. Does this suggest that the Operations Manager's estimate
of inventory weeks is correct? If so, what is your estimate of the overall
inventory at the end of the base year, and how much might that have increased
during the year?
In case you are unfamiliar with the term, "Inventory weeks", it is the number of weeks
of inventory, at current consumption rates, that we hold right now. You have last
year's sales for each item, and you have the current stock levels, so you can work
this figure out quite easily.
