. 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.

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

If the demand for product x is inelastic, a 4 percent decrease in the price of x will.
NeTakaya

A 4 percent decrease in the price will lead to an increase in the quantity demanded by less than 4 percent.

<h3>What is demand?</h3>

Demand simply means the amount of goods and services that a buyer wants to buy at a particular price and time.

When the demand for product x is inelastic, a 4 percent decrease in the price of x will lead to an increase in the quantity demanded by less than 4 percent.

The new Fore and Aft Marina is to be located on the Ohio River near Madison, Indiana. Assume that Fore and Aft decides to build
Nataly [62]

Po = 0.5385, Lq = 0.0593 boats, Wq = 0.5930 minutes, W = 6.5930 minutes.

<u>Explanation:</u>

The problem is that of Multiple-server Queuing Model.

Number of servers, M = 2.

Arrival rate, \lambda= 6 boats per hour.

Service rate, \mu= 10 boats per hour.

Probability of zero boats in the system,\mathrm{PO}=1 /\{[(1 / 0 !) \times(6 / 10) 0+(1 / 1 !) \times(6 / 10) 1]+[(6 / 10) 2 /(2 ! \times(1-(6 /(2 \times 10)))]\} = 0.5385

<u>Average number of boats waiting in line for service:</u>

Lq =[\lambda.\mu.( \lambda / \mu )M / {(M – 1)! (M. \mu – \lambda )2}] x P0

= [\{6 \times 10 \times(6 / 10) 2\} /\{(2-1) ! \times((2 \times 10)-6) 2\}] \times 0.5385 = 0.0593 boats.

The average time a boat will spend waiting for service, Wq  =  0.0593 divide by 6 = 0.009883 hours = 0.5930 minutes.

The average time a boat will spend at the dock, W =  0.009883 plus (1 divide 10) = 0.109883 hours = 6.5930 minutes.
