- Scenario 3 Ben Gibson, the purchasing manager at Coastal Products, was reviewing purchasing expenditures for packaging materials with Jeff Joyner. Ben was particularly disturbed about the amount spent on corrugated boxes purchased from Southeastern Corrugated. Ben said, I dont like the salesman from that company. He comes around here acting like he owns the place. He loves to tell us about his fancy car, house, and vacations. It seems to me he must be making too much money off of us! Jeff responded that he heard Southeastern Corrugated was going to ask for a price increase to cover the rising costs of raw material paper stock. Jeff further stated that Southeastern would probably ask for more than what was justified simply from rising paper stock costs. After the meeting, Ben decided he had heard enough. After all, he prided himself on being a results-oriented manager. There was no way he was going to allow that salesman to keep taking advantage of Coastal Products. Ben called Jeff and told him it was time to rebid the corrugated contract before Southeastern came in with a price increase request. Who did Jeff know that might be interested in the business? Jeff replied he had several companies in mind to include in the bidding process. These companies would surely come in at a lower price, partly because they used lower-grade boxes that would probably work well enough in Coastal Products process. Jeff also explained that these suppliers were not serious contenders for the business. Their purpose was to create competition with the bids. Ben told Jeff to make sure that Southeastern was well aware that these new suppliers were bidding on the contract. He also said to make sure the suppliers knew that price was going to be the determining factor in this quote, because he considered corrugated boxes to be a standard industry item. Is Ben Gibson acting legally? Is he acting ethically? Why or why not?arrow_forwardScenario 3 Ben Gibson, the purchasing manager at Coastal Products, was reviewing purchasing expenditures for packaging materials with Jeff Joyner.

- Mr. Zulhakim being assigned by his manager to develop their production planning for Year 2022. Table 3 shows the information that he able to obtain from the sales & marketing department. After doing the planning, Mr Zulhakim need to present it to his manager. Factory developed a demand forecast based on Table 3 with supplier charges about RM300.00 per unit. The demand forecast is stated as week but, in this planning, it is being considered as an annual quantity for the operation. Ordering cost is RM150.00. Annual holding cost is 10 percent of a purchased price. (b) Develop the ATP of this plan. Initial inventory on hand is 50 units obtained from Year 2021. Lot size for MPS can be obtained by using EOQ model.

- Don't mind the number i already wrotearrow_forwardDevelop a production schedule to produce the exact production requirements by varying the workforce size for the following problem. The monthly forecasts for Product X for January, February, and March are 940, 1,520, and 1,230, respectively. Safety stock policy recommends that half of the forecast for that month be defined as safety stock. There are 22 working days in January, 19 in February, and 21 in March. Beginning inventory is 570 units. Manufacturing cost is $170 per unit, storage cost is $5 per unit per month, standard pay rate is $8 per hour, overtime rate is $12 per hour, cost of stock-out is $9 per unit per month, marginal cost of subcontracting is $8 per unit, hiring and training cost is $160 per worker, layoff cost is $260 per worker, and worker productivity is 0.1 unit per hour.
