Answer:

1. Meena should take the quantity discount since with such discount the EOQ will rise by just 1 unit from 20.5units to 21.5 units and a net gain of $49.18.

2. The EOQ without discount will be 20.5 units

Explanation:

EOQ=Square root of ((2xordering cost x demand)/ (Carrying cost))

Gains of accepting discount will be

i. ordering cost savings= (demand/quantity order) x ordering cost

                                       = (660/360)*23=$42.16

ii. Price saving per item=0.18 x 660       =$118.80

total gain                                                   =$160.96

iii. Stockholding cost   =300 x (23 x 0.91 ) x 0.18=$1,130.22

iv. Additional cost incurred by increasing order= 1,130.22-(300 x 23 x0.18)

  =$111.78

Net gain= 160.96-111.78

              = $49.18

In the United States, about $5,200 per person per year is spent on health care, while in Britain the amount is about half that.
riadik2000 [5.3K]

Answer:

The answer is: C) The money spent on health care in the United States is not being used effectively.

Explanation:

American citizens spend twice as much as British citizens on health care per year. Even if certain diseases are more common in the US than in Britain, the overall cost of health care is too expensive in the US (100% difference) to be explained by a greater prevalence of just one or two diseases.

The only possible explanation is that the American health care system is not as efficient as the British health care system, therefore health care is more expensive.
