New research indicates that the ocean could rise in the next 100 years to a meter higher than the current sea level -- which is three times higher than predictions from the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change,
Answer:
The optimum production quantity is 72 wheel bearings per batch.
Explanation:
Wheel Rite can produce 480 wheel bearings per day.
Setup cost are $39 per batch.
Holding costs are $0.70 per unit per year.
The optimum batch size can be calculated as the one that minimizes the cost. This can be calculated with the Economic Order Quantity formula:
![Q=\sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H} }](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Q%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B2DS%7D%7BH%7D%20%7D)
In this case, the units are:
D: daily demand (52 u.)
S: Setup cost per order ($39)
H: holding cost per unit per year ($0.70)
Then, we have:
![Q=\sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H} }=\sqrt{\frac{2*52*39}{0.7} }=\sqrt{5,794}=76.12\approx 72](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=Q%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B2DS%7D%7BH%7D%20%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B%5Cfrac%7B2%2A52%2A39%7D%7B0.7%7D%20%7D%3D%5Csqrt%7B5%2C794%7D%3D76.12%5Capprox%2072)
The optimum production quantity is 72 per batch.
Fees charge = 2%
Investment worth = $500,000
Amount due = 2/100 * 500,000 = 10,000
The amount Andrew will receive as compensation is $10,000.
