Answer:

Safety Stock.

Explanation:

Safety Stock is held to respond to the uncertainties in demand and supply levels because it is an additional amount of a product or material which is generally held in an inventory to mitigate or lessen the risk that a product or material will become out of

stock.

In Business management, the safety stock can be calculated using the following formula;

<em>Safety stock = (Md * Ml) - (Ad * Al) </em>

Where;

Md = maximum daily usage.

Ml = maximum lead time in days.

Ad = average daily usage.

Al = average lead time in days.

galina1969 [7]

Answer:

$735,000

Explanation:

The fair values of the assets may be used as a basis for determining the amount to be recorded for each of the assets.

This will be in a proportional manner such that the higher the fair value, the higher the actual cost assigned and vice versa to the asset.

Hence the amount to be recorded for the building

= 840,000 / (840,000 + 840,000 + 1,120,000) * $2,450,000

= $735,000

In this simulation, theoretical utilization of the intensive care unit (ICU) is calculated as the flow rate of patients that arr

Dvinal [7]

Answer:

The theoretical utilization of the ICU is:

= 0.25 or 25%

Explanation:

Inter-arrival time or flow rate of patients that arrive for service at the ICU = 4 hours

Mean length of stay = 6 hours

ICU's capacity to serve customers in 6 hours = 4*6 = 24 bed-hours

Total demand = 6 hours

Therefore, the theoretical utilization = flow rate of patients that arrive for service at the ICU in a given unit of time divided by ICU's capacity to serve customers in that same unit of time

= 6 hours/24 bed-hours

= 0.25
