The annual demand for an item is 10,000 units. The cost to process an order is $75 and the annual inventory holding cost is 20%

of item cost.
Quantity Price
1 - 9 $2.95 per unit
10 - 999 $2.50 per unit
1,000 - 4,999 $2.30 per unit
5,000 or more $1.85 per unit

What is the correct ordering policy (give optimal order quantity), given the following price breaks for purchasing the item? What price should the firm pay per unit? What is the total annual cost at the optimal behavior?

Answer:

or ordering quantity 1-9,

EOQ = sqrt((2*annual demand*ordering cost)/holding cost per unit per year) = sqrt((2*10000*75)/(20%*2.95)) = 1594.48201

Optimal ordering quantity will not be in this range as calculated EOQ is beyond the range

For ordering quantity 10-999,

EOQ = sqrt((2*annual demand*ordering cost)/holding cost per unit per year) = sqrt((2*10000*75)/(20%*2.5)) = 1732.050808

Optimal ordering quantity will not be in this range as calculated EOQ is beyond the range

For ordering quantity 1000-4999,

EOQ = sqrt((2*annual demand*ordering cost)/holding cost per unit per year) = sqrt((2*10000*75)/(20%*2.3)) = 1805.787796

Total annual cost = ordering cost + holding cost + purchase cost = (10000/1805.787796)*75+(1805.787796/2)*(20%*2.3)+10000*2.3 = 23830.66239

For ordering quantity 5000 or more,

EOQ = sqrt((2*annual demand*ordering cost)/holding cost per unit per year) = sqrt((2*10000*75)/(20%*1.85)) = 2013.468166

EOQ is adjusted upwards to 5000 to avail the discount

Total annual cost = ordering cost + holding cost + purchase cost = (10000/5000)*75+(5000/2)*(20%*1.85)+10000*1.85 = 19575

So, optimal ordering quantity = 5000

Firm should pay $1.85 per unit

Annual cost at the optimal behavior = 19575

Answer:

a. An additional layer of $12,760 is added to the 12/31/2021 balance.

Explanation:

The computation of the inventory balance is given below:

2021 Base year cost is

=  $131,040 ÷ 1.05

= $124,800

Additional layer is

= $124,800 - $101,600

= $23,200

2022 Base year cost is

= $150,040 ÷ 1.10

= $136,400

Additional layer is

= ($136,400 - $124,800 ) × 1.10

= $11,600  1.10

= $12,760

Therefore the first option is correct

In its simplest form, amdahl's law maintains that if a given program would take one hour to run to completion with one processor
AlladinOne [14]
<span>20% is the maximum speed up possible for this program. For this problem, let's assign the time of 1 for the task when using a single processor. Now let's assume that we have an infinite number of processors available to handle the portion of the program that can be executed in parallel so that the execution time for that portion will be 0. That means that the total execution time with an infinite number of processors will be 1 * (0.80 + 0) = 1 * 0.80 = 0.80 So at best, the parallel program will take 80% of the time for the single threaded version. So the speed increase will be (1 - 0.80) / 1 = 0.20/1 = 0.20 = 20%</span>

Fragment Company is a wholesaler that sells merchandise in large quantities. Its catalog indicates a list price of $300 per unit
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

Recognized Sales Value = $18,000

Explanation:

Fragment company selling Price is $300/Unit

40% trade discount is offered for purchases of 50 units and more. That is, $300 x 40% = $120.

This implies anyone buying 50 or more will pay only $180/Unit ($300 - $120)

Customer Purchased 100 units

Sales terms is FOB, which implies Fragment is responsible for transportation costs of the products from his warehouse to the Port of Shipment including loading onto the ship. The Buyer will be responsible for Marine Freight expense, Insurance, Off-loading and shipment to his own warehouse

The $7 Per Unit indicated will account for inland transport to Port of shipment

Recognized Sales  =  100 units x $180 = $18,000

Cost of Haulage (Carriage outwards) is $7 x 100 units = $700
