Answer:

a. The EOQ for this item is 184 units

b. The desired safety stock is 47 units

c. The reorder point is 377 units.

d.  Holding co is 1,288.

The Ordering co isst 1,291

Explanation:

According to the given data we have the following:

Annual Demand (d) = 48*110 = 5280 units

a) Therefore,  EOQ = sqrt(2*D*S/H) = sqrt(2*5280*45/14) = 184 units

b) Safety Stock = Z*SD*sqrt(LT)

For Service level of 90%, Z value is 1.28

SD = 21

Lead Time (LT) = 3

Therefore, Safety Stock = 1.28*21*sqrt(3) = 47 units

c) Reorder point is D*LT + Z*SD*sqrt(LT)

= 110*3 + 47 = 377 units

d) If currently Q = 300, R = 370

Holding cost = Q/2*H = 300/2*14 = 2100$

Ordering cost = D/Q*S = 5280/300*45 = 792$

Total = 2,892$

For Q=EOQ=184 & R = 377

Holding cost = 184/2*14 = 1,288

Ordering cost = 5280/184*45 = 1,291

Total = 2,579$

Ksivusya [100]

Answer:

It may be more expensive and time-consuming than using an intermediary

Explanation:

Direct selling makes it hard to reach new customers and also entails spending an extensive time in trying to convince prospective customers before sales is made. Sadly, in some situations, some prospects do not buy in on the intended product and thus, no sale is made and time wasted.

Suppose the​ risk-free return is 6.5 % and the market portfolio has an expected return of 10.3 % and a standard deviation of 16
CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

= 7.678%

Explanation:

Data provided

Risk free rate = 6.5%

Beta = 0.31

Marker return rate = 10.3%

Risk free rate = 6.5%

The computation of expected return is shown below:-

Expected return = Risk free rate + Beta × (Marker return rate - Risk free rate)

= 6.5% + 0.31 × (10.3% - 6.5%)

= 6.5% + 0.31 × (3.8%)

= 6.5% + 1.178%

= 7.678%
