Solution :

The optimal order quantity, EOQ = $\sqrt{\frac{2 \times \text{demand}\times \text{ordering cost}}{\text{holding cost}}}$

EOQ = $\sqrt{\frac{2 \times 2000 \times 12}{3.6}}$

        = 115.47

The expected number of orders = $\frac{\text{demand}}{EOQ}$

                                                      $=\frac{2000}{115.47}$

                                                      = 17.32

The daily demand = demand / number of working days

                               $=\frac{2000}{240}$

                              = 8.33

The time between the orders = EOQ / daily demand

                                                 $=\frac{115.47}{8.33}$

                                                  = 13.86 days

ROP  = ( Daily demand x lead time ) + safety stock

        $=(8.33 \times 8)+10$

         = 76.64

The annual holding cost = $\frac{EOQ}{2} \times \text{holding cost}$

                                         $=\frac{115.47}{2} \times 3.6$

                                         = 207.85

The annual ordering cost = $\frac{\text{demand}}{EOQ} \times \text{ordering cost}$

                                           $=\frac{2000}{115.47} \times 12$

                                           = 207.85

So the total inventory cost = annual holding cost + annual ordering cost

                                            = 207.85 + 207.85

                                            = 415.7

More ambitious reformers call for publicly financed elections, in which _____ provides equal funding to each candidate and allow
EastWind [94]
<span>The government provides the funding for both candidates, giving them equal amounts. This would allow poorer people to run for office, because they would not have to fund their campaign out of pocket. Under our current system, currently only millionaires can effectively run for office, because they have the money for a campaign.</span>

Remember, a bond’s coupon rate partially determines the interest-based return that a bond (might/will)...........pay, and a bond
prohojiy [21]

Answer:

<u>will</u>, <u>would like </u>

Explanation:

Bond refers to debt instruments whereby corporates raise long term finance agreeing to pay in return, the holders of such securities (bond holders), timely coupon payments and principal repayment at the end of the term.

The fixed rate of interest bondholders receive is referred to as the coupon rate. The rate of interest received by holders of similar bonds in the market refers to an investors expected rate of return also denoted as YTM i.e yield to maturity.

Yield to maturity refers to the rate of return other investors are earning on similarly priced bonds in the market. Higher the yield to maturity, lower will be the present value of bond.

When coupon rate of payment is higher than YTM, such bonds are priced at a premium.

Milltown Company specializes in selling used cars. During the month, the dealership sold 31 cars at an average price of $15,900
wariber [46]

Answer:

The dealership's sales price variance for the month is $31,000 U

Explanation:

In order to calculate the dealership's sales price variance for the month we would have to calculate the following formula:

Sales price variance = Actual quantity sold x (Actual price - Budgeted price)

According to the given data que have the following:

Actual quantity sold=31 cars

Actual price=$15,900

Budgeted price=$16,900

Therefore, Sales price variance = 31 * ($15,900 - $16,900)

Sales price variance = $31,000 U

The dealership's sales price variance for the month is $31,000 U

All of the following are considered to be typical characteristics describing the nature of an insurance contract EXCEPT
slavikrds [6]

Answer:

Bilateral

Explanation:

According to my research on the different terms used when referencing an insurance contract, I can say that all of the answers provided except for Bilateral are considered typical characteristics describing the nature of an insurance contract. A bilateral contract is defined as an agreements between two parties in which each side agrees to fulfill his or her side of the bargain.

Since an insurance contract is a fund that the insurance company pays in the case of an accident in which the person is injured, there is only one party that agrees to fulfill their side of the bargain and that is the insurance company.

I hope this answered your question. If you have any more questions feel free to ask away at Brainly.
