Answer:

ROP = 150*1+(2.326*40*1) = 243.04 = 243 units (approx)

Explanation:

Given information -

c = 2.95 $/unit

Annual holding cost = 0.2*2.95 = 0.59 $/unit

Q = 300 units (EOQ)

L = 1 week

Mean demand = 150 units/week

σ= 40 units/week

z = 2.326 at 99 percent service level (1% stock out)

a) Reorder point = Average daily demand + Safety stock = dL+(z σ*\sqrt{L})

ROP = 150*1+(2.326*40*1) = 243.04 = 243 units (approx)

Savatey [412]

Answer:

In the following situation:

Reethika is in a meeting and has an important question. The only coworker who can answer the question is in a different meeting.

The only way Reethika can get the answer without disturbing either meeting is:

Sending a direct text message to her co-worker's cellphone.  

Explanation:

First of all, she can't send someone to look for her because that would disturb both meetings. Also, if she calls her that is also going to disturb both meetings. The only way she has is to send an e-mail or an SMS to her co-worker. However, that depends on the effect people can take upon her. Nevertheless, text messages like e-mails, SMS, or direct messages don't have a high level of disturbance. Considering most people have their cellphones in silence mode.

Equivalent Units = Units Completed and Transferred out + Ending Work in Progress.

Conversion Equivalent Units

Ending Work in Progress = 60% * 16,000

= 9,600 units

Equivalent Units = 86,000 + 9,600

= 95,600 units

A similarity between mortgages and auto loans is that both are less risky for lenders.
Lenders are the ones who lend money to those who need it urgently, in the form of a mortgage, or perhaps an auto loan. This money is going to be repaid monthly, or in whatever way the contract stipulates. It is less risky for the lender because legally, this has to be repaid.
