Suppose you are a supply chain manager for De Beers Diamond co., and your job is to order components for a manufacturing facilit

y who produces engagement rings. Your supervisor has asked you to find the optimal ordering strategy for diamonds. (P.S. Diamonds are forever!) 1. Determine the optimal number of diamonds to order with the below assumptions: D = 500 units S = $5 per order H = $0.50 per unit per year

Answer:

100 units

Explanation:

Given that,

Annual demand (D) = 500 units

Ordering cost (S) = $5 per order

Holding cost (H) = $0.50 per unit per year

Optimal order quantity(Q):

=\sqrt{\frac{2\times D\times S}{H}}

=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 500\times 5}{0.50}}

=\sqrt{\frac{5,000}{0.50}}

=\sqrt{10,000}

      = 100 units

So, the optimal number of diamonds to be ordered is 100 units.

Answer:

Simple payback is 4 years

Total discounted Payback is more than the 5 years which is the payback cutoff period.

Explanation:

Payback period is the time period in which the project recovers the initial cost incurred. Lower the payback period the more beneficial will be the project.

Simple payback = $100,000 / $25,000 = 4 years

Discounted Payback

Discounted payback is calculated by using the present value of future cash flows.

Total discounted cash flows = 22935.78 + 21042.0 + 19304.59 + 17710.63 + 16248.28 = 97,241.28

As sum of all cash flows are less than the initial investment so, total discounted Payback is more than the 5 years which is the payback cutoff period.

Suppose there are two individuals, Casey and Rick, who live in a very simplified world where only two goods are produced and con
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Casey's opportunity cost of producing 1 kg of potatoes is 5 kg of steak.

Casey's opportunity cost of producing 1 kg of steak is 0.2 kg of potatoes.

Rick's opportunity cost of producing 1 kg of potatoes is 3 kg of steak.

Rick's opportunity cost of producing 1 kg of steak is 0.33 kg of potatoes.

Casey should produce steak while Rick should produce potatoes, since Rick has a comparative advantage in producing potatoes (lower opportunity cost) and Casey has a comparative advantage in producing steak.

As long as the price of steak per kilogram of potatoes is less than 5 kg of steak and more than 3 kg of steak, then both would win. In order for both of them to win is a similarly proportional way, the exchange price should be 4 kg of steak per kg of potatoes.

professor190 [17]

Answer:

18.54%

Explanation:

The computation of the project modified IRR is shown below:

Here we use the spreadsheet for determining the IRR

but before that we need to find out the cash inflows

Years       Amount (in dollars)

Year 0: = - $278,191.12

              ($236,000 - $48,000 ÷ 1.13^4 -$30,000 ÷ 1.13^7)

Year 1: 64000

Year 2: 87000

Year 3: 91000

Year 4: 0

Year 5: 122000

Year 6: 154000

Year 7: 0

Now we use the excel

=IRR({-$278,191.12,$64,000,$87,000,$91,000,$0,$122,000,$154,000,0})

= 18.54%
