Answer:
EOQ = 220.6052281 shirts rounded off to 221 shirts
The order should be placed after every 110 days.
Explanation:
The EOQ or economic order quantity is the optimum order level or quantity which minimizes the inventory related costs. This is the order quantity where the cost of ordering and the cost of holding the inventory is the minimum. The formula for EOQ is,
EOQ = √(2 * AD * O) / H
Where,
- AD refers to annual demand
- O is ordering cost per order
- H is holding cost per unit per year
Annual demand for t shirts (assuming 365 days per year) = 2 * 365 = 730
Holding cost per unit per year = 0.5 * 12 = $6
EOQ = √(2 * 730 * 200) / 6
EOQ = 220.6052281 shirts rounded off to 221 shirts
To calculate how frequently the order should be placed,we will calculate the number of orders per year by dividing the total annual demand by the EOQ.
Number of orders per year = 730 / 220.61
Number of orders per year = 3.309 or 3.31 orders per year
Number of days per order = 365 / 3.309
Number of days per order = 110.305 days or 110 days
Answer: a. $120,000
b. $6,000
c. Yes
Explanation:
a. It is said that the collection centres would help reduce the collection time by 2 days and that every day $60,000 comes in.
If the proposal will reduce the amount of time taken to collect by 2 days then that means that the amount freed up is the amount that they would have collected in two days had it not been for the system.
That amount would be,
= $60,000 * 2
= $120,000
b. If they used this free up cash to pay off a debt that was accumulating 5% per year then the 5% will be saved.
The amount saved therefore is,
= 120,000 * 5%
= $6,000
By retiring a $120,000 that was accruing $6,000 a year, the proposal has enabled that $6,000 to be saved instead.
c. The cost of implementing this proposal is $5,200 per year and yet the savings it gives in interest is $6,000.
As the savings are higher than the cost, the number definitely suggest that the project should be implemented because it is more beneficial than it costs.

Answer: RAID 10
Explanation: RAID is a data storage technology that joins various physical disk drives into 1 or more logical units. The aim of this is to improve performance, reduce data redundancy, or to incorporate both of these aspects.
RAID 1+0 or RAID 10, makes use of a minimum of 4 disks, to stripe data across these disks in pairs. This action combines disk striping with disk mirroring to protect data. Data is retrieved so long as 1 disk in the mirrored pair is operational. These functions can improve the system that the technician is trying to fix.
Answer:
Total equivalent units= 11,890
Explanation:
Giving the following information:
Assembly Department completes 10,200 gadgets and transfers them to Finished Goods Inventory.
The Assembly Department has 2,600 gadgets in the process that are 65% complete for conversion.
<u>To calculate the equivalent units, we need to multiply the % complete for the number of units started:</u>
Units completed= 10,200
Units in ending inventory= 2,600*0.65= 1,690
Total equivalent units= 11,890
