When Wal-Mart started purchasing from the manufactures of products directly in 1980 it helped to grow the business into a major success. The three activities that helped build the success was more cost effective inventory management, distribution practices by having their own fleet of trucks, and supply chain efficiency which helped to save time.
Answer:
$510,130
Explanation:
Costs can be classified into two categories: Product Costs and Period Costs. Product costs are the manufacturing costs that are incurred in the production of goods and services. Under absorption costing, product costs include direct materials, direct labor, indirect materials, indirect labor, and other factory overhead. These costs are capitalized and expensed out when related goods and services are sold out.
On the other hand, period costs are selling & administrative expenses. These costs are never capitalized and expensed out in the statement of profit or loss as soon as incurred. Examples of period costs are advertisement expenses, depreciation expenses (not related to factory), sales commissions, administrative salaries and wages.
<u>Calculation of Period Costs</u>
Advertising costs $12,000
CEO's salary 460,000
Delivery vehicle depreciation 1,230
Administrative wages and salaries 36,900
Total Period Costs $510,130
Answer: See explanation
Explanation:
a. The optimal order quantity can be calculated as:
= √2DS/H
where
D = 3 × 12 × 3487 × 0. 75
= 94149
Total cost incurred during purchase
= $1.55 + $0.70
= $2.25
Setup cost (S) = $186
Holding cost
= 32% × $2.25
= 0.32 × $2.25
= $0.72
Optimal order quantity
= √(2 × 94149 × 186)/0.72
= 6974.50
b. This will be calculated as:
Annual demand / EOQ
= 94149/6974.50
= 13.50
The company should order cotton 13.5 times per year.
c. Since the first order is needed on 1-July and lead time is 2 weeks, SYM should place the order before 17th June.
d. This will be:
= Annual demand / EOQ
= 94149/6974.50
= 13.5 orders
e. The resulting annual holding cost will be:
= 0.72 × (6974.50/2)
= 0.72 × 3487.25
= $2510.82
f. The resulting annual ordering will be:
= 94149/6974.50 × $186
= 13.5 × $186
= $2511
