- Q5: TechGear did not use Jane's proposal and decided to stay with the current vendor. The management recently has been selling the product in boxes, where a box includes 10 units. After looking into the sale data of 250 observations for a reorder period (or lead time, i.e., 3 business days), only 6 situations were found: either 21 boxes, 22 boxes, 23 boxes, 24 boxes, 25 boxes, or 26 boxes had been sold during a reorder period. The frequencies for each situation are listed below. The management has been using the above ROP in Q2 (ROP = 240). To achieve a service level of 90% or better, the management calculated the minimum safety stock (SS) needed (such SS = 0 if it is not needed). With this SS, there may be an impact on the inventory costs for the year due to the above safety stock. Is this possible impact an increase or decrease in the inventory costs of the year? What is the most possible amount of this impact (in $)? Boxes sold Units sold Frequency (observations) 21 210 20…arrow_forwardRefer to Figure 11.23 and Solved Problem 1.
