Answer:
False
Explanation:
The capacity utilization rate is found by dividing used capacity by the total capacity operating level.
Since services cannot be stocked, the ideal scenario would be to operate at full capacity every single day, but that is not possible. I'm not sure if there is any service company in the world that operates at full capacity all the time, not even Magic Kingdom or Disneyland.
But that doesn't mean that it is always bad to operate at low capacity levels, since every service company must regularly perform maintenance operations, e.g. a hotel must be painted and other repairs must be made.
Also, many services are seasonal, e.g. you do not sky all year long, only during winter, and the opposite applies to the beaches and other parks.
Answer:
The company should place an order every 2 days
Explanation:
The EOQ or economic order quantity is the quantity which minimizes the inventory related costs. The EOQ is calculated as follows,
EOQ = √(2 * D * O) / H
Where,
- D is the annual demand
- O is the ordering cost per order
- H is the holding cost per unit per year
EOQ = √(2 * 30000 * 20) / 40
EOQ = 173.2050808 gallons rounded off to 174 gallons
If the company orders using the EOQ, then at an annual demand of 30000 gallons, the number of times that company should order the EOQ is,
Number of orders = 30000 / 174 = 172.4137931 or 173 orders per year
If the company needs to order 173 times per year, the company should place an order every x number of days.
x = 365 / 173
x = 2.10982659 days rounded off to 2.11 days or every 2 days
Answer and Explanation:
The computation of the change in price is shown below:
Original import price
= 1,650,000 ÷ 197
= 8375.63
The new import price is
= 1,650,000 ÷ 190
= 8,684.21
Now the percentage change in price is
= (8,684.21 - 8375.63) ÷ 8375.63
= 3.68%
This would be equal to the percentage change in the Japanese yen as the price of the truck remains unchanged
