UA Hamburger Hamlet (UAHH) places a daily order for its high-volume items (hamburger patties, buns, milk, and so on). UAHH count

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

730 items

Explanation:

The objective of the given information is to determine the number of hamburgers UAHH should order for the following conditions:

Average daily demand 600

Standard deviation of demand 100

Desired service probability 99%

Hamburger inventory 800

The formula for a given order quantity in a fixed period of time can be expressed as :

$q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I$

where;

$q$ = order quantity = ???

$\overline d$ = daily demand average = 600

L = lead time in days = 1

T = time taken = 1

z = no of standard deviation = ???

$\sigma_{L+T}$ = standard deviation of usage in lead time and time taken = ???

I = present inventory level = 800

$\sigma_{L+T}$ = $\sqrt 2$ × standard deviation of daily demand

$\sigma_{L+T}$ = $\sqrt{2} *100$

$\sigma_{L+T}$ = 1.4142 * 100

$\sigma_{L+T}$ = 141.42 items

From the Desired service probability 99% = 0.99; we can deduce the no of standard deviation by using the excel function (=NORMSINV (0.99))

z = 2.33

From $q = \overline d(L+T)+ z \sigma_{L+T}-I$

$q =600(1+1)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800$

$q =600(2)+ 2.33*(141.42)-800$

$q =1200+329.5086-800$

q = 729.5086 items

q ≅ 730 items

Therefore; the number of hamburgers UAHH should order from the following given conditions = 730 items

China is a highly efficient manager. This implies that she:________ a. minimizes the amount of input resources without compromis

devlian [24]

Answer:

a. Minimizes the amount of input resources without compromising quality.

Explanation:

Efficiency is when productive resources are measured inorder to achieve goal. Task are performed at its best with the least cost and less energy in measuring efficiency

Effectiveness measures goals completeness selected by managers for the organization. It means doing the right thing as expected of the organization.

For China to be efficient, she must minimize the amount of input resources without compromising quality. An efficient manager must perform a task qualitatively with the available resources, least cost and in the best way possible.

What would you do if you were in the position of the business executives described in the “gift giving and the african elder” ca

lubasha [3.4K]

The business executives were further complicating a situation that was even that complicated to begin with. Tribal elder or not, the business executives were informed that the man was a tribal elder, thus following through with the gift giving customs. This type of act walks hand and hand with the philosophy behind sending something a card. This act should be seen as an act of respect and continued growth, nothing more. This gift should not have been foreseen as an unethical compromise of any <span>kind, but rather a token of appreciation.

Managers make assumptions in CVP analysis. These assumptions include: (Check all that apply.) Multiple select question. some uni

BigorU [14]

The assumptions that are made in CVP analysis includes the following:

costs can be classified as variable or fixed.
costs are linear within the relevant range.
constant fixed cost per unit.

<h3>What is CVP analysis?</h3>

Cost Volume Profit analysis is the type of analysis that has to do with the cost accounting. This type of analysis is one that takes the impact of the various costs and volume on profit.

It helps to check how the changes that occur in the variable and the fixed cost affect profit.
