Purchase (Net) $ 122,000 $ 200,000

Total $ 180,000 $ 300,000

Cost to retail percentage = $180,000/$300,000 Cost to retail percentage = 60%

B2. Computation for a cost-to-retail percentage Excluding Markups but Including Markdown

Cost Retail

Beginning Inventory $ 58,000 $ 100,000

Purchase (Net) $ 122,000 $ 200,000

Less Mark down ($ 26,135)

Total $ 180,000 $273,865

Cost to retail percentage= $180,000 /$ 273,865*100

Cost to retail percentage= 65.73 %

B3. Computation for a cost-to-retail percentage Excluding Markdowns but including Markups

Cost Retail

Beginning Inventory $ 58,000 $ 100,000

Purchase Net $ 122,000 $ 200,000

Add Net Markups $ 10,345

Total $180,000 $ 310,345

Cost to retail percentage = $180,000 / $ 310,345*100

Cost to retail percentage = 58 %

B4. Computation for a cost-to-retail percentage Including both Markups and Markdown

Cost Retail

What are the benefits of "inventory pooling"? Establishing pools of inventory at each supplier and customer locationsCentralizes
PolarNik [594]

Answer:

The benefits of Inventory Pooling includes:

  • centralizing inventory into fewer locations thus reducing safety stocks and the amount of inventory needed in the supply chain.
  • Pulling back inventory when firms have too much at retail level.

Explanation:

inventory pooling is an operational strategy used to increase efficiency in stock management and analysis.

It is a supply chain tool that consolidates multiple inventory locations into a single one.

It is a centralized system that helps with stock keeping. It makes projections easier and helps manage shortfalls that may arise due to demand uncertainty.

It is cost effective by reducing cost of employing more staff and reduces the percentage error due to the centralized portal.

By reducing operational costs, profit is maximized.
