Answer:

The best batch size for this item is 400 units.

Explanation:

As given Annual demand (D)=1000 units, Carrying cost (H)=$10 per unit, set up cost (S)=$400.

As per the production order model formula will be:

\sqrt{2}D*S/H[1-d/p]} .

d for week=1000/50

                 =20. p per day

                 =40 units/7 days.

                 =5.71

d per day = 20/7

                =2.85

Therefore on applying all these:\sqrt{}2*1000*400/10[1-2.85/5.7.

on solving this we will get 400 Units

Therefore, The best batch size for this item is 400 units.

lozanna [386]

Answer:

Holmes should sell process the product further, because the profit if process further is higher than sell product now.

Explanation:

Net profit if sell product now is $37,500 ( = sales to another manufacturer $97,500 – already spent $60,000)

Sales as in process further/ Incremental Accounting

Sales: $695,125 (=$415 x 1,675 units)

Additional Process costs: $485,570 (=$290 x 1,675 units)

Net profit if process further = total sales $695,125 – already spent $60,000 – additional process cost $485,570 = $149,555, higher than profit $37,500 if sell now.
