Answer:

B) greater than $30 but less than $40

  • the actual result is $39

Explanation:

the options are missing:

A) less than or equal to $30

B) greater than $30 but less than $40

C) greater than $40 but less than $50

D) greater than $50

we must first calculate safety stock = (Z-score x √lead time x standard deviation of demand) + (Z-score x standard deviation of lead time x average demand)

  • Z-score for 98% confidence level = 2.326
  • standard deviation of demand = 30
  • √lead time = √5 = 2.23607
  • we are not given any standard deviation of lead time, so we can assume that it is 0

safety stock = (2.326 x √2.23607 x 30) + (2.326 x 0 x 300) = 156.03 ≈ 156 units

the annual holding cost of 156 units = 156 x $0.25 = $39

EastWind [94]

Answer:

B) MBO

Explanation:

An MBO is a secondary vocational education program carried out in the Netherlands. It lasts for four years and its courses go from assistant training, basic vocational training, professional training and finally middle-management training. It is basically the dutch equivalent of technical college, since you start the MBO when you are around 18 years old. After you complete your MBO you can continue your college education.

The MBO covers a lot of professions but it is basically hands on training, since between 20 -60% of the time is practical training (they work as someone else's assistant or trainee).

Isabella is her boss's trainee and since she is about to graduate, she must start training 2 new assistants.
