Answer:

Her final displacement is 0.4 km North

Her total distance is  8.2 km

Explanation:

Given;

initial position, = 2.5 km north

then 4.3 km south

final position = 1.4 km north

let northward direction = positive direction

let southward direction = negative direction

The final displacement = 2.5 km North - 4.3 km South + 1.4 km North

The final displacement = -0.4 km North

Thus, the magnitude of the final displacement = 0.4 km North

In distance, the direction of the motion is not considered

The total distance = 2.5 km + 4.3 km + 1.4 km

The total distance = 8.2 km

MamaMia's Pizza purchases its pizza delivery boxes from a printing supplier. MamaMia's delivers on-average 200 pizzas each month
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

a) 138 units

b) 17 units

c) 17 units

d) Total Cost = $353.35

Explanation:

Given:

Average pizzas delivered = 200

Charge of inventory holding = 30% of cost

Lead time = 7 days

Now,

a) Economic Order Quantity =  \sqrt\frac{2\times\textup{Annual Demand}\times\textup{Cost per Order}}{\textup{Carrying cost}}

also,

Annual Demand = 200 × 12 = 2400

Cost per Order = Cost of Box + Processing Costs

= 30 cents + $10

= $10.30

and, Carrying Cost = \frac{\textup{Total Inventory Cost}}{\textup{total annual demand}}

=\frac{\textup{Total Cost per order}\times\textup{Annual demand}\times\frac{25}{100}}{\textup{Annual demand}}

= \frac{\$10.30\times2400}\times\frac{25}{100}}{2400}

= $2.575

Therefore,

Economic Order Quantity =  \sqrt\frac{2\times\textup{2400}\times\textup{10.30}}{\textup{2.575}}

= 138.56 ≈ 138 units

b) Reorder Point

= (average daily unit sales × the lead time in days) + safety stock

= (\frac{200}{30}\times7

= 46.67 ≈ 47 units

c) Number of orders per year = \frac{\textup{Annual Demand}}{\textup{Economic order quantity}}

= \frac{\textup{2400}}{\textup{138}}

= 17.39 ≈ 17 units

d) Total Annual Cost (Total Inventory Cost)

= Ordering Cost + Holding Cost

Now,

The ordering Cost = Cost per Order × Total Number of orders per year

= $10.30 × 17

= $175.1

and,

Holding Cost = Average Inventory Held × Carrying Cost per unit

Average Inventory Held = \frac{\textup{0+138}}{\textup{2}} =  69

Carrying Cost per unit = $2.575

Holding Cost = 69 × $2.575 =  

$177.675

Therefore,

Total Cost = Ordering Cost + carrying cost

= $175.1  + $177.675 = $353.35
