Buckshot Electronics is a chain of electronics superstores that is located throughout California. They have 15 locations concent

rated primarily in heavily populated areas. They sell thousands of products made by hundreds of different manufacturers. Buckshot sells everything from phones, video cameras, and video game consoles to large items like televisions.
Sony is one of their larger suppliers. They offer products in nearly every category Buckshot offers to its customers. In fact, Sony sells multiple cell phone models through Buckshot. One such model is the Q9900. One of Buckshot's San Francisco stores is forecasted to sell about 7800 units of the Q9900 in the coming year. This forecasted demand is about average in terms of Buckshot's 15 other California locations. Presently they order 900 units of the Q9900 every 6 weeks. Each store fills weekly orders through its Sony Distributor for items like TV's, DVD Players, cameras, and of course, cell phones, in addition to many other items. Orders for cell phones must be made in increments of 100 units. The distributor takes only one order per week, but Buckshot is not obligated to order every item every week. That order is then shipped 2 days later to that individual Buckshot Electronics location by truck. Buckshot's Central Procurement is looking to save money by investigating order sizes and subsequent order frequency. You are being asked to create a recommendation for order size and time between orders for the Q9900 based on the numbers for this San Francisco location. Answer the questions that follow in order to create a detailed report.

Below are some the key figures important in your analysis:

Q9900 Wholesale Price $325.00
Q9900 Retail Price $399.00

Annual Per Unit Holding Costs are estimated at 35% of the wholesale cost of the Q9900.

a. What is the per unit cost for each item?
b. What is the annual cost to purchase the items?

Answer:

Explanation:

Given that:

annual demand = 7800 units

wholesale price = $325

retail price = 399

The per-unit cost for each item = $399 per unit

The annual cost to purchase the items = Annual demand × wholesale price

= annual demand × price of the wholesales

= 7800 × 325

= $2535000

lawyer [7]

Answer:

periodically pay a fixed rate of interest and receive a floating rate of interest.

Explanation:

The interest rate (rate of return) can be defined as the percentage of interest or dividends earned on money that is invested.

In Financial accounting, a return refers to the amount of profit generated by an investor on an investment over a specific period of time.

Basically, the interest rate which is typically expressed as a percentage of the initial costs of an investment can either be a gain or a loss on an investment. Therefore, a positive rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, simply means that an investor is making a profit (gains) while a negative rate of return on an investment over a specific period of time, indicates that the investor is running at a loss.

By convention, a swap buyer on an interest rate swap agrees to periodically pay a fixed rate of interest and receive a floating rate of interest.

Plan production for a four-month period: February through May. For February and March, you should produce to exact demand foreca
Alex73 [517]

Answer:

The optimal production plan gives a total costs of $417,672 for the periods Feb to May

In Feb we will have to hire 26 workers to close the gap between demand and production from our 100 existing workers

In March however, we will have to lay them off (26 workers) to keep our production in line with demand.

In April, we are constrained to 100 workers, thus requiring that we run overtime. The overtime requirement is between 3,060 hours to max of 5,000 hours. Note that inspire of the hours chosen, demand for April still won't be fulfilled.

The best option will be the one that gives us last backlog because of the costs of backorder being extremely costly.

5,000 overtime hours in April is the best option .

In May, we are constrained to our 100 workers, meaning we will fulfill our back orders and also retain inventory in hand of 7,760 units.

The 3 pages attached show how the cost is worked out and the presentation as well.
