le on the item. The firm operates 52 weeks in a year. Refer to the standard normal table for z-values. Demand = 78,000 units/year Ordering cost=$38.00/order Holding cost=$3.00/unit/year Average lead time=9 weeks Standard deviation of weekly demand = 120 units The economic order quantity for this item is square box units. (Enter your response rounded to the nearest whole number.) If Petromax wants to provide a 96% service level, the safety stock is square box units (enter your response rounded to the nearest whole number) and the reorder point is square box units (enter your response rounded to the nearest whole number).

Answer:

  • Economic order quantity= 1406 units
  • Safety Stock= 630 units
  • Reorder Point= 14130 units

Explanation:

Given Demand D= 78,000units/year

Ordering cost S = $38.00/order

Holding cost H = $3.00unit/year

Average lead time = 9 weeks

Standard deviation of weekly demand = 120 units

a) Economic order quantity:

EOQ = \sqrt{(2*D*S)/H}

EOQ = \sqrt{(2*78000*38)/3}

1405.7 = <u>1406 Units</u>

b)<u> Safety Stock:</u>

Weekly demand = 78000/52 =1500 units

Standard deviation of weekly demand = 120 units

Lead time is 9 weeks

Using the normsinv() in excel the Z value for the desired 96% service level is 1.75

Safety stock = z\sigma _{d}\sqrt{L}

= 1.75*120*\sqrt{9}

= 630 units

Reorder point = average lead time demand + safety stock

= lead time * weekly demand + saftey stock

  = 9*1500 + 630

  = 13500 + 630

Reorder point = 14130

Airborne Airlines Inc. has a $1,000 par value bond outstanding with 20 years to maturity. The bond carries an annual interest pa
ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

7.52%

Explanation:

First and foremost ,the yield to maturity on the old issue is computed using the rate formula in excel as calculated below:

=rate(nper,pmt,-pv,fv)

the nper is the number of times the bond would pay annual coupon interest of $106,which is 20 times

pmt is the amount of annual coupon payment which is $106

pv is the current price of the bond at $860

fv is the face value of the bond at $1000

=rate(20,106,-860,1000)=12.54%

The yield to maturity on the new issue is 12.54%  as well

after-tax cost of debt=pretax cost of debt*(1-t)

pretax cost of debt is yield to maturity of 12.54%

t is the tax rate of 40% or 0.4

after-tax cost of debt=12.54% *(1-0.4)=7.52%

According to the Fisher Effect, the expected rate of inflation does not influence the:________.
Alekssandra [29.7K]

Answer:

ex ante real interest rate.

Explanation:

According to Fisher effect the expected inflation rate will affect indices like nominal interest rate, current prices of goods, and the demand for money.

However it does not affect the ex ante real interest rate.

The Fisher effect shows how real interest rate is related to nominal interest rate.

Real interest rate = Nominal interest rate - Expected inflation rate

Ex ante real interest rate is the anticipated real interest rate in the future.

This is not considered in the Fisher effect
