(EOQ calculations) A downtown bookstore is trying to determine the optimal order quantity for a popular novel just printed in paperback. The store feels that the book will sell at four
times its hardback figures. It would, therefore, sell approximately 2,000 copies in the next year at a price of $1.50. The store buys the book at a wholesale figure of $1. Costs for
carrying the book are estimated at $0.25 a copy per year, and it costs $25 to order more books.
a. Determine the EOQ.
b. What would be the total costs for ordering the books 1, 4, 5, 10, and 15 times a year?
c. What questionable assumptions are being made by the EOQ model?
a. What is the economic order quantity (EOQ)?
copies (Round to the nearest whole number.)

Use the information for the question(s) below.Food For Less (FFL), a grocery store, is considering offering one hour photo developing in their store. The firm expects that sales from the new one hour machine will be $150,000 per year. FFL currently offers overnight film processing with annual sales of $100,000. While many of the one hour photo sales will be to new customers, FFL estimates that 60% of their current overnight photo customers will switch and use the one hour service. Suppose that of the 60% of FFL's current overnight photo customers, half would start taking their film to a competitor that offers one hour photo processing if FFL fails to offer the one hour service. The level of incremental sales in this case is closest to:
A. $150,000
B. $120,000
C. $60,000
D. $90,000

The company has compiled the following estimates for the new product offerings. Type of Sales Price Variable Cost Bookshelf per Unit per Unit Basic Deluxe Type of Bookshelf $5.00 9.00 The company is interested in determining how many of each type of bookshelf would have to be sold in order to break even. If we think of the Basic and Deluxe products as components of one overall enterprise product called "Combined," the unit contribution margin for the Combined product would be $2.31.

- Target is considering opening mini-Target stores in airports across the United States. Target knows that 25% of the items in its store account for 70% of the store's sales and expects that this Pareto relationship will hold for the mini-Target stores. The mini-Targets will each carry 50 items, but it's unknown at this point which 50 items will be stocked. The annual sales of a mini-Target is forecasted to be $500,000. Assume A items are top 20% of items sold, B items are the next 30% and C items are the bottom 50% of items sold. Turnover is expected to be for A items = 50, B items and C items = 10 1.

- The Hub Store at a university in eastern Canada is considering purchasing a self-serve checkout machine similar to those used in many grocery stores and other retail outlets. Currently the university pays part-time wages to students totalling $59,500 per year. A self-serve checkout machine would reduce part-time student wages by $39,500 per year.

Major maintenance would be needed on the machine in five years at a total cost of $10,900. The salvage value of the checkout machine in 10 years would be $44,500. The CCA rate is 25%.
