Answer:
A) economic order quantity ( order quantity model that will minimize the total holding cost and ordering costs ) = 
= 
= 122. 74 ≈ 122 ( optimal ordering quantity ) units
B) Annual holding cost = 23 * 122 / 2 = $1403
C ) Annual ordering costs = 1500/122 * 77 = $947
D ) The reorder point = daily demand * lead time = 50 * 3 = 150 units
Explanation:
Annual demand for connectors : 1500
ordering cost ( cost to place and process an order ) : $77
annual holding cost per unit : $23
A) economic order quantity ( order quantity model that will minimize the total holding cost and ordering costs ) = = = 122. 74 ≈ 122 ( optimal ordering quantity ) units
B) Annual holding cost = 23 * 122/2 = $1403
C ) Annual ordering costs = 1500 / 122 * 77 = $946.72 ≈ $947
D ) The reorder point = daily demand * lead time = 50 * 3 = 150 units
daily demand = 1500 / 300 = 50
lead time = 3
Answer:
55,060 machines
Explanation:
Projected sales = 54,500
Estimated opening balance = 6,860
Desired ending balance = 7,420
Budgeted production = ?
Let the budgeted production be B
Using the formula
Opening balance + Budgeted production - Sales = Closing balance
6,860 + B - 54,500 = 7,420
B = 7,420 + 54,500 - 6,860
B = 55,060
The budgeted production for the year is 55,060 machines.
Answer: A. maximizes the profits from money management.
Explanation:
The optimal average level of money is indeed the amount that maximises profit from money management.
Money management is essentially taking charge of your money and ensuring that you manage it in such a way as to limit unnecessary expenses whilst growing money through measures such as budgeting, investing and expenses tracking.
With Mr Peabody's income and other financial constraints, the optimal average level of money will be the most he can maximise from managing his money.
