Explanation:
Given that:
weekly demand = 72 units
no of weeks in 1 year = 48
Then; total demand = 72 × 48 = 3456 units
No of orders =
=
∴
The periodic review (P) =
=
= 0.041956 year
≅ 2 weeks
Z score based on 88 percent service level = NORMSINV(0.88) = 1.18
Here;
Lead time = 3 wks
P = 2 weeks
Thus protection interval = ( 3+2) weeks
= 5 weeks
Safety stock = z-score × std dev. of demand at (P+L) days
std dev = = 2.236 × 18
std dev = 40.248 units
Safety stock = 1.18 × 40.248
safety stock = 47.49 units
Safety stock ≅ 48 units
Average demand during(P + L) = 5 × 72 units
= 360 units
Target inventory level = average demand + safety stock
= 360 units + 48 units
= 408 units
Answer: 2.74 years
Explanation:
Payback Period is a method of capital budgeting that works by checking how long the project will take to repay the investment outlay.
The formula is;
Payback Period = Year before Payback Period occurs +
Initial Outlay = $4,650
First Year = $1,350
Second Year = $2,450
Third Year = $1,150
First year + second year = 1,350 + 2,450 = $3,800
Remaining till repayment = 4,650 - 3,800 = $850
Third year amount of $1,150 is higher than $850 so amount will be repaid in 3rd year.
Payback Period = Year before Payback Period occurs +
Payback Period = 2 +
Payback Period = 2.74 years
