Answer:

B. No, no free entry

Explanation:

With a patent granted to one pharmaceutical company to produce and sell an experimental AIDs drug, all doors of free entry and exit have been locked against other pharmaceutical companies. This implies that one of the major ideals of a competitive market is violated. Without free entry and exit, there cannot be many sellers, and we cannot discuss about the possibility of firms producing identical products because there is only one drug.

Answer:

The answer for each requirement is given separately below.

Explanation:

What is the economic production quantity (EPQ)?

EPQ = ((Annual Requirement * setup cost *2)/Carrying cost per unit)^(1/2)

= ((30,000 * 50 *2)/3^(1/2)

= 1000 Units

a. What is the average inventory level for this optimum production quantity?

Average Inventory level = EPQ/2 = 500 units

b. How many production setups would there be in a year?

Production setups = Annual Usage /EPQ = 30 set ups

C. What is the optimal length of production run in days

length of production = Total Requirement/production per day

= 30,000/275

=110 days approx

d. What would be the savings in annual inventory Cost if setup costs can be reduced to US$40 per setup?

If set up cost reduce to $40 than EPQ = 895

So Set up cost = 30,000/ 895 * 40 = 1,360

Carrying cost = 883/2 *3 = 1,325

Total Cost = $ 2,685 -A

If set up cost $50 than EPQ = 1000

So Set up cost = 30,000/ 1000 * 50 = 1,500

Carrying cost = 1000/2 *3 = 1,500

Total Cost = $ 3,000- B

Saving = B-A = 315 Dollars
