- 1. Michael Traci, the new inventory manager at Magyar Golf Supplies, is considering using the economic order quantity for controlling inventory. He wants you to apply the EOQ to a sample product, the Super-Z Wedge. The Super-Z Wedge has an average demand of 30 units/period with an ordering cost of $30/order. The cost of carrying a Super-Z Wedge in inventory is $2.00/unit/ period. No safety stock is carried for this item. a. Calculate the economic order quantity. b. Calculate the average cycle stock for this item using the order quantity in question a. c. Assuming there are 12 periods per year, calculate total cost per year.arrow_forwardThe materials manager for a billiard ball maker must periodically place orders for resin, one of the raw materials used in producing billiard balls. She knows that manufacturing uses resin at a rate of 50 kilograms each day, and that it costs $.04 per day to carry a kilogram of resin in inventory. She also knows that the order costs for resin are $100 per order, and that the lead time for delivery is four days. If the order size was 1,000 kilograms of resin, what would be the average inventory level?arrow_forwardEpworth Co. predicts that it will use 360,000 gallons of material during the year. It anticipates that it will cost $72 to place each order. The annual carrying cost is $4 per gallon. a. Determine the most economical order quantity by using the EOQ formula. b. Determine the annual order and carrying costs at the EOQ point.arrow_forward
- Black Instrument Company replenishes highly specialized replacement (service) parts based on statistical reorder point. One part is a 40-mm thumbscrew. Relevant data for the thumbscrew are: Planned stock out frequency= Six per year. Planned lead time = 2 weeks Forecast for next week= 300 Batch size = 400 Standard deviation of demand = 20 (per week) What is the reorder point? What would be the effect on the ROP if lead time were five weeks instead of two? What other factors might impact your decision on when to reorder parts?arrow_forwardExercise on EOQ and TAIC: Data: D = 7000 flyers, Q = 500 flyers S = $100, k = 28%, C = $2, number of days/year = 350 days Calculate the total cost and the total inventory cost to see if the company's ordering policy needs to be changed. If yes, how should it be changed? Question 2: This year's forecast for D is 8000 flyers/year. The following price list is given according to quantity: Quantity Price 599- 999 2,5$ 1000- 1999 2$ > 2000 1,5 $ How should the ordering policy be changed? (Note: questions about ordering policies like this require finding two factors: when to order and how much to order each time.)arrow_forwardThe annual demand for the Super Thrive brand plant food manufactured by Cumberbatch and Dunst Indoor Plants Company is 120,000 pounds.
