Answer:
$378,000
Explanation:
average weekly demand 70 per distribution center
average shipment size to each distribution center is 450
average lead time 3 weeks
each distribution center has a 3 week safety stock
pipeline inventory: average lead time x average demand per distribution center x average price of each modem x number of distribution centers = 3 weeks x 70 units x $360 x 5 = $378,000
pipeline inventory in transit = $378,000
The pipeline inventory represents the minimum average that the company needs to have to at least meet the weekly demand for its product.
Divide variable costs by output. Therefore, it would be 750000 divided 1200, giving you $625.
