. Wilson Publishing Company produces books for the retail market. Demand for a current book is expected to occur at a constant a

nnual rate of 7200 copies. The cost of one copy of the book is $14.50. The holding cost is based on an 18% annual rate, and production setup costs are $150 per setup. The equipment on which the book is produced has an annual production volume of 25,000 copies. Wilson has 250 working days per year, and the lead time for a production run is 15 days. Use the production lot size model to compute the following values:

Answer:

(a) 1,078.12  copies

(b) 6.68 runs per year

(c) 37.43 days

(d) 10.78 days

(e) 767.62  copies

(f) $2,003.48

(g) 432 copies

Explanation:

Given that,

Annual demand (D) = 7200 copies

Cost of the book (C) = $14.50

Holding cost (H) = 18% of cost of book = 18% of $14.50

                           = $2.61

Setup costs (S) = $150

Annual production volume = 25,000 copies

Number of working days = 250

Lead time (L) = 15 days

Daily demand (d) = Annual demand ÷ Number of working days

                            = 7200 ÷ 250

                            = 28.8 copies

Daily production (p) = Annual production ÷ Number of working days

                                 = 25000 ÷ 250

                                 = 100 copies

(a) Minimum cost production lot size (Q):

Q=\sqrt{\frac{2\times D\times S}{H\times (1-\frac{d}{p})}}

Q=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 7,200\times 150}{2.61\times (1-\frac{28.8}{100})}}

Q = 1,078.12  copies

(b) Number of production runs:

= Annual demand (D) ÷ Production quantity (Q)

= 7,200 ÷ 1,078.12

= 6.68 runs per year

(c) Cycle time:

= Production quantity (Q) ÷ Daily demand (d)

= 1,078.12 ÷ 28.8

= 37.43 days

(d) Length of a production run:

= Production quantity (Q) ÷ Daily production (p)

= 1,078.12 ÷ 100

= 10.78 days

(e) Maximum inventory (Imax):

= Q × (1 - d÷p)

= 1,078.12 × (1 - 28.8 ÷ 100)

= 767.62  copies

(f) Total annual cost:

= Annual holding cost + Annual setup cost

=  [(Q ÷ 2) × H × (1 - d÷ p)] +  [(D ÷ Q) × S]

=  [(1,078.12 ÷ 2) × $2.61 × (1 - 28.8 ÷ 100)] +  [(7,200 ÷ 1,078.12) × $150]

= $1,001.74 + $1,001.74

= $2,003.48

(g) Reorder point:

= Daily demand × Lead time

= 28.8 × 15

= 432 copies

Answer:

(a) 1,078.12  copies

(b) 6.68 runs per year

(c) 37.43 days

(d) 10.78 days

(e) 767.62  copies

(f) $2,003.48

(g) 432 copies

Given Data:

Annual demand (D) = 7200 copies

Cost of the book (C) = $14.50

Holding cost (H) = 18% of cost of book =  ($14.50)*18% = $2.61

Setup costs (S) = $150

Annual production volume (P) = 25,000 copies

Number of working days (n) = 250

Lead time (L) = 15 days

Calculations:

(a) Minimum cost production lot size (Q):

Q=\sqrt{\frac{2*D*S}{H*(1-\frac{D}{P}) } } \\\\Q=\sqrt{\frac{2*(7200)*(150)}{(2.61)*(1-\frac{7200}{25000}) } }\\\\)

Q = 1,078.12  copies

(b) Number of production runs (PR):

PR = \frac{D}{Q}\\\\PR = \frac{7200}{1078.12}\\\\

PR = 6.68 runs annually

(c) Cycle time (T_c):

T_c = n*(\frac{Q}{D})\\\\T_c = 250*(\frac{1078.12}{7200})\\\\

T_c = 37.43 days

(d) Length of a production run (PRL):

PRL=n*(\frac{Q}{P})\\\\PRL=250*(\frac{1078.12}{25000})\\\\

PRL = 10.78 days

(e) Maximum inventory (I_{max}):

I_{max} = (1-\frac{D}{P})*Q\\\\I_{max} = (1-\frac{7200}{25000})*1078.12

I_{max} = 767.62  copies

(f) Total annual cost (TAC):

TAC = Annual holding cost + Annual setup cost -------------------- (1)

where,

Annual holding cost = (\frac{1}{2})*I_{max}*H\\\\

Annual holding cost = (\frac{1}{2})*767.62*2.61\\\\

Annual holding cost = $1001.74

and,

Annual setup cost = (\frac{D}{Q})*S\\\\

Annual setup cost = (\frac{7200}{1078.12})*150\\\\

Annual setup cost = $1,001.74

Equation (1) will become,

TAC = $1,001.74 + $1,001.74

TAC = $2,003.48

(g) Reorder point (R):

R = (\frac{D}{n})*L\\\\R = (\frac{7200}{250})*15\\\\

R = 432 copies

Conversion Costs = 418,500

Explanation:

<u>Calculation of Equivalent Units of Production</u>

1. Raw Materials

Ending Work In Process Inventory (25,000 × 71%)          17,750

Completed and Transferred (406,000 × 100%)           406,000

Equivalent Units of Production for Materials                 423,750

2. Conversion Costs

kykrilka [37]

Answer:

B) greater than $30 but less than $40

  • the actual result is $39

Explanation:

the options are missing:

A) less than or equal to $30

B) greater than $30 but less than $40

C) greater than $40 but less than $50

D) greater than $50

we must first calculate safety stock = (Z-score x √lead time x standard deviation of demand) + (Z-score x standard deviation of lead time x average demand)

  • Z-score for 98% confidence level = 2.326
  • standard deviation of demand = 30
  • √lead time = √5 = 2.23607
  • we are not given any standard deviation of lead time, so we can assume that it is 0

safety stock = (2.326 x √2.23607 x 30) + (2.326 x 0 x 300) = 156.03 ≈ 156 units

the annual holding cost of 156 units = 156 x $0.25 = $39

shtirl [24]

Answer:

Results are below.

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Fixed costs= $192,000

Unitary variable cost= $320 per week

Selling price per unit= $480 per week

<u>To calculate the total cost, we need to use the following formula:</u>

Total cost= fixed costs + unitary variable cost*number of units

Total cost= 192,000 + 320*number of weeks

<u>Now, the total revenue:</u>

Total revenue= selling price per week*Number of weeks

Total revenue= 480*x

<u>Finally, the break-even point in units:</u>

Break-even point in units= fixed costs/ contribution margin per unit

Break-even point in units= 192,000 / (480 - 320)

Break-even point in units= 1,200 campers
