Answer:

25%

Explanation:

The reorder point is the inventory management system in which a certain level of inventory is set as a trigger for reordering the stock. The probability to stocking out before the new order of envelopes arises is 25%. The lead time is normally distributed with mean of 10 boxes.

(reorder point - normally distributed mean) / standard deviation

15 boxes - 10 boxes / 3 boxes = 1.67

To calculate probability of stocking out for the company,

1.67 * 15 boxes reorder point = 25%

Question: The options were not given in the question. here are the options;

a. 50%

b. 75%

c. 5%

d. 95%

e. 25%

Answer:

The correct option is D. 95%

Explanation:

ROP = demand during lead time + (Z * standard deviation of lead time demand)

15 = 10 + (Z * 3)

Z = 1.667

For Z = 1.667, service level is nearly 95%

ExtremeBDS [4]
If the insurer takes the policy as applied for the coverage will take effect when the conditions of the receipt are met and from the date of the application or medical exam. The two types of conditional receipts are insurability and approval. The insurability receipt provides interim coverage as the applicant is insurable while the approval receipt will not begin until the insurer will approve the claim. However, conditional receipts will provide the coverage if the applicant is insurable as applied for and coverage will not be delivered until the applicant accepts the coverage if the insurer concerns a counter-offer because the applicant is substandard risk.

The demand curve for a product is given by QXd = 1,200 - 3PX - 0.1PZ where Pz = $300.
arsen [322]

Answer:

Explanation:

a. QXd = 1,200 – 3PX – 0.1PZ

Pz = $300 and Px = $140, plugging the values, we get,

Qx = 1200 – 3*140 – 0.1*300.

Qx = 750 units.

Elasticity of demand = \deltaQx/\deltaPx * Px/Qx.

\deltaQx/\deltaPx = -3.

E = -3 * 140/750.

E = -0.56

The elasticity of demand is INELASTIC because the absolute value of elasticity is less than one. If the firm charges a price below $140it might lose out in revenue because the percentage change in demand is less than the price.

b. Px = $240, substituting this into the equation we get

Qx = 1200 – 3*240 – 0.1*300

Qx = 450 units.

E = -3 * 240/450.

E = -1.6

The demand is elastic because the absolute value is less than one. If the firm charges a price above $240 it might lose out on its revenue because the percent change in demand is more than the price.

c. Cross price elasticity of demand Es = \deltaQx/\deltaPz * Pz/Qx.

\deltaQx/\deltaPz = -0.1

Es = -0.1 * 300/750.

Es = -0.04

The goods are complements of each other. As the price of one increases, the demand for other would fall, and vice-versa is true.
