Answer:
14 kanbans
Explanation:
Note: <em>The full question is attached as picture below</em>
<em />
d = 150 units
lt = 3.00 days
Safety stock = 1.50 days
c = 50 units
Demand during lead time = d * LT
Demand during lead time = 150 * 3
Demand during lead time = 450 units
Safety stock = d * 1.50 days
Safety stock = 150 * 1.50
Safety stock = 225 units
N = Demand during lead time + Safety stock / C
N = 450 units + 225 units / 50 units
N = 675 / 50
N = 13.5
N = 14 kanbans
So therefore, the unit of 14 kanbans are needed.

Answer:
c. $135,000
Explanation:
We will compare the contribution per machine hour as machine hours are limited.
Computing contribution per machine hour
Product X Y
Contribution per unit $24 $18
Machine hours per unit 3 2
Contribution per machine
hour
= $8 = $9
Since contribution per machine hour is higher of product Y, thus maximum production of Product Y will be done, in that case total units that can be produced of Y = 15,000 hours/ 2 hours per unit = 7,500 units
Total contribution = 7,500 X $18 per unit = $135,000
Thus correct option is c. $135,000
