Answer:

a. 759 units

b. $948.75

c. 16 orders, $960

d. $1908.75

e.  16

f. 480

Explanation:

Economic order quantity (EOQ) is focus on the reducing the cost like - carrying cost, holding cost to produce additional number of a units in a company.

a. The  economic order quantity (EOQ) is computed below.

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{annual demand}\times \text{ordering cost}}{\text{carrying cost per order}}}

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{12,000}\times \text{\$ 60}}{\text{2.50}}}

= 759 units

b. Average inventory = Economic order quantity ÷ 2

                                   = 759 ÷ 2

                                  = 379.5

Annual inventory holding cost = Average inventory × holding cost per order

= 379.5 × $2.50

= $948.75

c. Number of orders each year = Demand ÷ Economic order quantity

= 12,000 ÷ 759 units

= 16 orders

Annual order cost = Number of orders × ordering cost

= 16 orders × $60.00

= $960

d. Annual cost = Annual inventory holding cost + Annual order cost

= $948.75 + $960

= $1908.75

e. Time between orders = Number of working days per year ÷ number of orders

= 250 ÷ 16

= 16

f.  Reorder Point (ROP) = Daily demand × lead time + safety stock

=  (12,000 ÷ 250) × 10

= 480

Thus,

a. 759 units

b. $948.75

c. 16 orders, $960

d. $1908.75

e.  16

f. 480

Which do you think is better?/Which do you prefer? FedEx or UPS?
GrogVix [38]

Answer:

I personally like UPS because most of the times I have to send documents or goods domestically and UPS is very well known for its domestics shipments and I also prefer it because of its low rates as compared to FedEx which has higher rates. I am also comfortable with UPS because of its customer services. They respond to your query very quickly and try to resolve it as soon as possible. Their first priority is always their customers.

Why is it so difficult to correctly identify a new product or process as emerging technology?
Finger [1]

Answer:

Technology is defined by how people use scientific knowledge, and not only does scientific knowledge constantly change, but the way we use it is also constantly changing.

Emerging technologies refers to a new technology or technological innovations. The problem is that what can be considered new and how fast will it become obsolete? Our world is changing so fast, that current technology will be obsolete in just a few months, or maybe a year from now.

Because new technologies become old too fast, it is very difficult to identify them before they are no longer an innovation. Only those technologies that become mainstream can be clearly identified as emerging technologies, e.g. the iPhone was considered an emerging technology in 2007 and even though the first iPhone is obsolete now, it became mainstream technology.
