A manufacturer is contemplating a switch from buying to producing a certain item. Setup cost would be the same as ordering cost.

Flauer [41]

Answer

D) compared to the EOQ, the maximum inventory would be approx 30% lower.

Explanation

EOQ = √(2*Co*D/Cc)

EPQ= √ (2*Co*D/(Cc*(1-x)))

x=D/P

D = demand rate

P =production rate

Co=ordering cost

Cc=holding cost

1) The production rate would be about double the usage rate.

hence, P = 2D

x=D/2D=0.5

EPQ= √ (2*Co*D/((1-0.5)*Cc))

EPQ= √ (2*Co*D/0.5Cc)

EPQ=√ (1/0.5)*EOQ

EPQ=√ (2)*EOQ

EPQ=1.41*EOQ

Hence, EPQ is around 40% larger than EOQ.

Ans.: c) EPQ will be approximately 40% larger than the EOQ.

2) Compared to the EOQ, the maximum inventory would be

maximum inventory = Q

EPQ = 1.41 EOQ

EPQ = 1.41*Q

Q=EPQ/1.41

Q=0.71 EPQ

Hence, compared to EOQ, maximum inventory in EPQ is only 70% of that in EOQ model.

Mark or Make is a bourbon distillery. Sales have been steady for the past three years, and operating costs have remained unchang

schepotkina [342]

Answer:

a. No allocation

2019 2020 2021

Gross Profit on Sales 350,000 349,000 351,000

Less: Operating Expense 210,000 210,000 210,000

Gross Revenue 140,000 139,000 141,000

Rent (Prepaid) 0 0 0

Revenue after Rent paid 140,000 139,000 141,000

Less: Corporate Taxes at 30% 42,000 41,700 42,300

Net Income $98,000 $97,300 $98,700

Considerations for No Allocation

- Taxes are to be deducted from Gross Profit.

- Rent not to be deducted from Gross Profit.

b. Comprehensive Allocation

2019 2020 2021

Gross Profit on Sales 350,000 349,000 351,000

Less: Operating Expense 210,000 210,000 210,000

Gross Revenue 140,000 139,000 141,000

Rent (Prepaid) 60,000 60,000 60,000

Revenue after Rent paid 80,000 79,000 81,000

Less: Corporate Taxes at 30% 24,000 23,700 24,300

Net Income 56,000 55,300 56,700

Considerations for Comprehensive Allocation

- Taxes are to be deducted from Gross Profit.

- Rent is to be deducted from Gross Profit.

c. No allocation distorts Mark or Make’s Net Income for all three years. This is because if Rent is not allocated taxes will be calculated on Gross Revenue. That is to say, Rent is a Non-Operating Expense and hence is to be deducted from Revenue to Calculate the Taxes. When Revenue is reduced, obviously, the taxes will be reduced. Hence, less income is seen in Comprehensive Income Statement and more Revenue is seen in Simple - Non Comprehensive Statement.
