Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the effective annual rate in each of the following cases are
1.
Effective annual rate = [(1+annual percentage rate ÷ period)^period]- 1
= (1 +0 .09 ÷ 4)^4 - 1
= 9.31%
2.
Effective annual rate = [(1+annual percentage rate ÷ period)^period]- 1
= (1 + 0.16 ÷ 12)^12-1
= 17.23%
3.
Effective annual rate = [(1+annual percentage rate ÷ period)^period]- 1
= (1 + 0.12 ÷ 365)^365-1
= 12.75%
4 .
Effective annual rate = [(e)^Annual percentage rate]-1
e=2.71828
So,
=[(2.71828)^0.11]-1
= 11.63%
Answer:
Explanation:
Given that:
weekly demand = 72 units
no of weeks in 1 year = 48
Then; total demand = 72 × 48 = 3456 units
No of orders =
=
∴
The periodic review (P) =
=
= 0.041956 year
≅ 2 weeks
Z score based on 88 percent service level = NORMSINV(0.88) = 1.18
Here;
Lead time = 3 wks
P = 2 weeks
Thus protection interval = ( 3+2) weeks
= 5 weeks
Safety stock = z-score × std dev. of demand at (P+L) days
std dev = = 2.236 × 18
std dev = 40.248 units
Safety stock = 1.18 × 40.248
safety stock = 47.49 units
Safety stock ≅ 48 units
Average demand during(P + L) = 5 × 72 units
= 360 units
Target inventory level = average demand + safety stock
= 360 units + 48 units
= 408 units
