Radovilsky Manufacturing Company, in Hayward, California, makes flashing lights for toys. The company operates its production fa

Anna007 [38]

Answer:

Given,

Annual demand, D = 12500,

Setting up cost, S = $ 49,

Production rate per year, P = production facility × capability of production = 300 × 105 = 31500,

Holding cost per year, H = $ 0.15,

Hence,

(i) Optimal size of the production run,

$Q = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H(1-\frac{D}{P})}}=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 12500\times 49}{0.15(1-\frac{12500}{31500})}}=3679.60238126\approx 3680$

(ii) Average holding cost per year,

$=\frac{QH}{2}(1-\frac{D}{P})$

$=\frac{3680\times 0.15}{2}(1-\frac{12500}{31500})$

$=166.476190476$

$\approx \$ 166.48$

(iii) Average setup cost per year,

$=\frac{D}{Q}\times S$

$=\frac{12500}{3680}\times 49$

$=166.44021739$

$\approx \$ 166.44$

(iv) Total cost per year = average setup cost per year + average holding cost per year + cost to purchase 12500 lights

= 166.44 + 166.48 + 12500(0.95)

= $ 12207.92
