A) 
<span>To determine the Annual Set-up Cost </span>
<span>Annual set-up cost = (# of orders placed per year) x (Setup or order cost per order)  </span><span>= Annual Demand </span><span># of units in each order ¡Á (Setup or order cost per order)  </span><span>= (D/Q) ¡Á(S) </span>
<span>           = (6000/Q) x (30) </span>
<span>
To determine Annual holding cost = Average inventory level x Holding cost per unit per year </span><span>= (Order Quantity/2) (Holding cost per unit per year) </span>
<span>                           = (Q/2) ($10.00) </span>

<span> </span>
<span>To determine Optimal order quantity is found when annual setup cost equals annual holding cost:  </span><span>(D/Q) x (S) = (Q/2) x (H) </span>
<span>                          (6,000/Q) x (30) = (Q/2) (10) </span>
<span>                                                    =(2)(6,000)(30)
                                                    = Q2 (10) </span>
<span>Q2 = [(2 ¡Á6,000 ¡Á30)/($10)]
      = 36,000 </span>
<span>       =([(2 ¡Á6,000 ¡Á30)/(10)])
       =</span><span>189.736 ¡Ö 189.74 units </span><span>
Hence, EOQ = 189.74 units </span>

<span>B)  </span>
<span>Average inventory level = (Order Quantity/2) </span>
<span>                                      = (189.74) /2
                                      = 94.87 </span>
<span>Average Inventory level =94.87 units </span>

<span>C)  </span>
<span>N= ( Demand/ order quantity)
    = (6000/ 189.736)
    =31.62 </span>
<span>Hence, the optimal number of orders per year = 31.62 </span>

<span>D) </span>
<span>T = (Number of Working Days per year) / (optimal number of orders) </span>
<span>   = 250 days per year / 31.62
   = 7.906 </span>
<span>So, the optimal number of days in between any two orders = 7.91 </span>

<span>E) </span>
<span>Using, (Q) x (H) : </span><span>(189.736 units) x ($10) =$1,897.36 </span>
<span>So, The annual cost of ordering and holding the inventory = $1,897 </span>

F)
<span>TC = setup cost + holding cost </span>
<span>      = (Dyear/Q) (S) + (Q/2) (H) </span>
<span>      = (6,000/189.74) ($30.00) + (189.74/2) ($10.00) </span>
<span>      = $948.67 + $948.7 </span>
<span>      = 1,897.37
</span><span>Purchase cost = (6,000 units) x ($100/unit)
                       = $600,000 </span>
<span>Total annual inventory cost = $600,000 + $1,897
                                            = $601,897 </span>

Urgency has the advertising company used to persuade you to buy the face cream

What is the Urgency technique?

In order to convince their audience and potential consumers to buy your product or obtain it at the best price, professionals in the field of sales utilize the tactic of urgency. Making clients feel pressured into making a purchase immediately rather than later can assist.

The audience's fear of missing out on something worthwhile, or FOMO, is frequently the target of urgent advertising. Typically, two factors must be combined in order to successfully appeal to this fear of missing out. The adverts often start out by explaining why the product is appealing. Second, they restrict the number of products offered, provide a sale price for a brief period of time, or combine these two standards.

What are the advantages of increasing sales urgency?

Your organization can profit in a number of ways from instilling a sense of urgency in sales. The following are a few of the most typical advantages of building urgency in sales:

assisting clients in taking quick decisions

Increasing sales and the perceived worth of your goods

Increasing consumer interest in your products

providing quick feedback on the effectiveness of sales strategies

simplifying the purchasing process for your clients

lowering the likelihood that buyers will make different choices

Last year Dania Corporation's sales were $525 million. If sales grow at 10.5% per year, how large (in millions) will they be 8 y
Andru [333]

In 8 years, Dania Corporation's sales would be $936.33 million.

Solution:

Since last year sales = $525 million,

Let last year be Year 0

So, in year 0 = $525 million.

Sales grow = 7.5% per year,

Year 1,

525 x 1.075 = $564.375 million.

Year 2,

564.375 x 1.075 = $606.7 million

Year 3,

606.7 x 1.075 = $652.2 million

Year 4

652.2 x 1.075 = $701.12 million

Year 5

701.12 x 1.075 = $753.7 million

Year 6

753.7 x 1.075 = $810.23 million

Year 7

810.23 x 1.075 = $871 million

Finally in year 8

871 x 1.075 = $936.33 million
