a

Summary Introduction

Interpretation:Current values of mean and the MAD of monthly demand is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Exponential smoothing is used to recursively update the estimates of the mean and standard deviation of demand. The standard deviation is estimated using the mean absolute deviation (MAD).

b

Summary Introduction

Interpretation:Current values of mean and standard deviation of lead time demand are to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Normal distribution is the probability function with continuous series. It is bell shaped distribution function where mean, median and mode are same.

Exponential smoothing is used to recursively update the estimates of the mean and standard deviation of demand. The standard deviation is estimated using the mean absolute deviation (MAD).

c

Summary Introduction

Interpretation:Current values of mean and standard deviation of lead time demand when ordered from Japan are to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Exponential smoothing is used to recursively update the estimates of the mean and standard deviation of demand. The standard deviation is estimated using the mean absolute deviation (MAD).

d

Summary Introduction

Interpretation:Value of reorder is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Exponential smoothing is used to recursively update the estimates of the mean and standard deviation of demand. The standard deviation is estimated using the mean absolute deviation (MAD).

The supply chain is a conventional notion, but organizations are only really interested in making products that they can sell to customers. Provided they have reliable supplies of materials and reasonable transport for finished products, logistics is irrelevant. Do you think this is true? If yes, explain, and if no, clearly explain as well.
