Answer:
- Economic order quantity= 1406 units
- Safety Stock= 630 units
- Reorder Point= 14130 units
Explanation:
Given Demand D= 78,000units/year
Ordering cost S = $38.00/order
Holding cost H = $3.00unit/year
Average lead time = 9 weeks
Standard deviation of weekly demand = 120 units
a) Economic order quantity:
EOQ = \sqrt{(2*D*S)/H}
EOQ = \sqrt{(2*78000*38)/3}
1405.7 = <u>1406 Units</u>
b)<u>
Safety Stock:</u>
Weekly demand = 78000/52 =1500 units
Standard deviation of weekly demand = 120 units
Lead time is 9 weeks
Using the normsinv() in excel the Z value for the desired 96% service level is 1.75
Safety stock = z\sigma _{d}\sqrt{L}
= 1.75*120*\sqrt{9}
= 630 units
Reorder point = average lead time demand + safety stock
= lead time * weekly demand + saftey stock
= 9*1500 + 630
= 13500 + 630
Reorder point = 14130
Answer:
The interest rate is 7.83%
Explanation:
The winner price in the year 1895 = $190
The winner price in the year 2014 = $1490000
Time duration between, 2014 – 1895 = 119 years
Now we have to find the interest rate at which the winner price has been increased. Thus, use the below formula to find the interest rate.
Future value = present value (1+ r)^n
Future value = $1490000
Present value = $190
n = 119
Now insert the values in the formula.
1490000 = 190(1 + r)^119
1490000 / 190 = (1+r)^119
r = 0.07826 or 7.83%

Answer:
1) Flitcom Corp (Beta = 0.60)
2) Tobotics Inc. (s.d. = 11%)
Explanation:
1. Suppose all stocks in Ariel's portfolio were equally weighted. Which of these stocks would contribute the least market risk to the portfolio?
The indicator of the market risk is the Beta. It relates the variation of the price or value of the stock relative to the variation of the total stocks in the market.
The value of Beta indicates how risky is a stock relative to the risk of the market. A Beta =1 means it has the same systemic risk as the market. If Beta<1, the stock is less volatile than the market, and if Beta>1, it is more volatile than the market.
Then, the stock with less value of Beta will contribute the least risk to the portfolio.
This is the case of Flitcom Corp (Beta=0.60)
2. Suppose all stocks in the portfolio were equally weighted. Which of these stocks would have the least amount of stand-alone risk?
The stand-alone is reflected by the standard deviation. The less the standard deviation, the less risk of the stock (measured only the stock variability).
This is the case of Tobotics Inc. (s.d. = 11%)
