Radovilsky Manufacturing Company , in Hayward, California, makes flashing lights for toys. The company operates its production f
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

Explanation:

Given Demand D = 12,500 lights per year

Set up cost S = $51

Cost of each light (C) = $1 .05

Holding cost = $0.1 per light per year

Production p= 100 lights per day

Usage (d) = 12,500/300 days = 41.66(round up to 42)

= 42 lights per day

a) What is the optimal sizeof the production run?

Q =√{(2×D×S) / (H(1-(d / p)))}

Q =√{(2×12500×51)/(0.1(1-(42/100)))}

= 4688.577 = 4689 units

Q = 4689 units

b) What is the average holding cost per year?

Average holding cost per year = average inventory level * H

= (Q/2)H[1- (d/p)]

= (4689/2)0.1[1-(42/100)]

= $135.98

c) What is the average setup cost per year?

average setup cost per year = (D/Q)S

= (12,500/4689)× 51

= 135.97

d) What is the total cost per year, including the cost of the lights?

Total cost = D*C + total set up cost + total holding cost

12,500 ×1.05 + 135.98 + 135.97

Total cost = $ 13,396.95

If you were in a debate fighting for the rights of something what techniques should you use, just curious?
Crazy boy [7]
Techniques? Hm, well I’d definitely try to reason with them. I’d rely more on logos by giving facts or data that can be proven in some type of way.

This was the best answer I could give for right now, considering that I’m currently typing with one hand. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Brewster's is considering a project with a life of 5 years and an initial cost of $120,000. The discount rate for the project is
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer:

Net present value 27.792‬

Explanation:

<u>Sales</u> 2.100 units x 20 net cash flow =<em> $ 42,000 cash flow per year</em>

<u>Present value of the first three years:</u>

C \times \frac{1-(1+r)^{-time} }{rate} = PV\\

C 42,000

time 3 years

discount rate: 0.12

42000 \times \frac{1-(1+0.12)^{-3} }{0.12} = PV\\

PV $100,876.9133

For year 4 and 5 we need to check for the expected cashflow

<u>We will multiply each outcome by their probability:</u>

1,400 units x $20 per unit x 0.5 chance =  14,000

2,500 units x $20 per unit x 0.5 chance = 25,000

expected return:    <em>39,000</em>

<u>present value of these years:</u>

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  $39,000.0000

time   4 end of year 4th

rate  0.12

\frac{39000}{(1 + 0.12)^{4} } = PV  

PV   24,785.21

\frac{Maturity}{(1 + rate)^{time} } = PV  

Maturity  $39,000.0000

time   5 end of year 5th

rate  0.12

\frac{39000}{(1 + 0.12)^{5} } = PV  

PV   22,129.65

<u>Net present value</u> will be the present value of the cash flow less the investment.

100,877 + 24,785 + 22,130 - 120,000 = 27.792‬
