Assume Dell's yearly inventory cost is 30 percent to account for the cost of capital for financing the inventory, the warehouse

space, and the cost of obsolescence. In other words, Dell incurs a cost of $30 for a $100 component that is in the company's inventory for one entire year. In 2001, Dell's 10-k reports showed that the company had $280 million in inventory and COGS of $23,100 million. To compute the percentage of cost of the inventory, determine the following:
a. Find the value of the inventory.
b. Find the cost of goods sold.
c. Compute inventory turns. (Round the answer to the nearest whole number.)
d. What percentage of cost of a Dell computer reflects inventory costs? (Round the answer to 3 decimal places.)

The continuing cycle of erratic demand causing forecasts to include safety stock which in turn magnify supplier forecasts and ca
balandron [24]

Answer:

The Bullwhip Effect

Explanation:

Bullwhip effect is a phenomenon that occurs in an organisation's channel of distribution due to swings or erratic demands for products by customers. This erratic nature of demands will usually lead to forecasting inefficiencies especially in meeting the demands through the supply chain.

A sudden increase in demand could lead to production planning problems because there might not be enough inventory of materials on ground to meet the demand. Also, a sudden decrease in demand can bring the challenge of excess inventory of materials which may not be needed for production for a while.

One of the measures taken to manage this erratic nature of demands is to ensure that whatever the forecasts for demands is, safety stock must be included to the forecast level of demand so as to ensure that production planning is adequate and the demands are met as well.

Provide realistic examples of each of the risk response strategies for both negative and positive risks
VLD [36.1K]
A positive risk response produces provides positive strategies to achieve a positive goal while a negative risk response provides negative strategies to achieve a negative goal. There are four ways four strategies that produces a response risk; enhance, exploit, accept and share. The type of response risk will vary in the accept part.

An example of a positive risk is when you are given a project in class and you are to finish it in four months. Being a hardworking person that you are, you wanted to finish it in one month and so you find methods to compress your time schedule and achieve your goal.

Let us take the example from the above mentioned before for an example of a negative risk. So instead of four months, since you do not like working or the fact that maybe you don't like the project, you passed your project in six months. What you just did is lounge around the corner and did nothing to just improve the project.

dangina [55]

Answer: $12,113.14

Explanation:

Find out the future value of each payment 20 years from now then sum up the values.

Year 1:

= 250 * ( 1 + 15%)¹⁹

= $3,557.94

Year 2:

= 300 * ( 1 + 15%)¹⁸

= $3,712.636

Year 3:

= 450 * ( 1 + 15%)¹⁷

= $4,842.5688

Future value of all:

= 3,557.94 + 3,712.636 + 4,842.5688

= $12,113.14
