Answer: 29.4 gallons

Explanation:

The Safety Stock that should be held by the company to have a Service Level of 99.0% will be:

= Z × σ × ✓LT

Z = 2.326

σ = Standard deviation = 8

LT = Lead time = 2.50

Safety stock = = Z × σ × ✓LT

= 2.326 × 8 × ✓2.50

= 2.326 × 8 × 1.58

= 29.4 gallons

The safety stock is 29.4 gallons.

Explanation:

<u>The opportunity cost is a term for a process when one thing is chosen and the other alternatives are lost as a cost. </u><u>This is one of the key concepts in economics</u>, as it explains the gain, costs, benefits, and choices. It doesn’t only have to refer to the money cost, but to any loss, that is made during the process of choosing between the alternatives.

The profit and benefits of other choices are lost by making a decision to chose one thing, and benefiting it from it alone.

yulyashka [42]

Answer:

That low income can be enough because of either one of these two reasons (or the two at the sime time):

  • A high proportion of subsidized good for low-income earners in developing countries: a consumer making $1,000 per year on average could benefit from subsidized food, housing, healthcare, and even transportation, allowing this person to devote most of his income to other expenses.
  • Cheap credit available: this same person could not have enough money to pay for the television in cash, but could easily obtain a credit with low interest rates, and long-term payments.
