Explanation:
<h2>Please note that the assumption is that the full question is as follows .</h2><h2>You are making the inventory decisions for an international company that sells bathing suits. The product has a forecasted daily demand with mean 100 and standard deviation 36. The selling season only lasts 6 months since bathing suits are a seasonal item. You are procuring the product from your factory in China (out-sourcing) and as a result the lead time is so long (6 months) that you can only place only one order per selling season (6 months before the season begins). You want to ensure a service level of 97.5% and the cost of capital of the firm is 20% (that is, the firm faces an annual interest rate of 20%). Shipping cost is $4,500 while procurement cost (purchase cost) per item is $5.</h2><h2>1.How many bathing suits should you order from your factory in China? </h2><h2>2.What is the total holding cost? </h2><h2>3.What is the total ordering cost?</h2>
Answer:
Let Lt = Loan in period t , t= 1...4
It = Investment in period t, t= 1...4
These are the decision variables
The objective is to maximize the net income which is the difference between Loan and investment in period 4
Investment income in period 4 = 110% of I4 = 1.1I4
Expense and loan in period 4 = 1.085 L4
So,
Maximize Z = 1.1I4-1.085 L4
Constraints
L1<= 3000
I1<= 4500
L1-I1= 100( Payroll payment)
L2<= 7000
I2<= 8000
L2+1.1I1-1.085L1-I2=120
L3<=4000
I3<= 6000
L3+1.12I2-1.085L2-I3=150
L4<=5000
I4<=7500
L4+1.13*I3-1.085L3-I4=100
1.10I4-1.085L4>=0
Lt, It>=0
