ArbitrLikvidat [17]

Answer:

a. On average, the number of boards they have on order = 1,056 boards.

b. On average, the number of boards they have =560 boards.

c. Total holding cost per week = $140.

d. Holding cost incurred per board = $ 0.25.

Explanation:

In the question, the details given are:

Service level =96 %

Lead time =3 weeks

Weekly demand =150

Standard deviation=200

This is a case of variable demand and constant lead time

a. Reorder point =Demand during lead time +Safety stock

=Average weekly demand*lead time+z*sqrt(lead time)*standard deviation of weekly demand

=150*3+NORMSINV(0.99)*sqrt(3)*200

=450+1.7507*sqrt(3)*200

=450+606.46=1,056.46

=1,056 (nearest whole number).

On average, the number of boards they have on order = 1,056 boards.

b. For a normal distribution,

z=x-mean/std deviation

z-value for a 96% confidence level = 2.05

2.05=x-150/200

x = 150+2.05*200=560

On average, the number of boards they have =560 boards.

c.Total holding cost per week=Average inventory *holding cost per week=560/2 *0.5=280*0.5 =$140

d.Holding cost incurred per board =Total holding cost /Number of boards =140/560 = $ 0.25.

MakcuM [25]

They will most likely not raise their prices.

If you look at the kinked demand curve, deviating from the market price will lead to losses for the firm. Increasing the price will lead to a loss in sales as price rigidity is a characteristic of an oligopolistic market, whereas if the firm lowers prices, this will invoke a price war and everyone will end up fighting for lower prices and customers.
