A company plans to consume 700 pieces annually of a particular component. Past records indicate that its purchasing department spent $12,500 for placing 15,000 purchase orders. The average inventory was valued at $50,000 and the total storage cost was $7,500, which included wages, rent, taxes, insurance etc. related to store department. The company borrows capital at 10 per cent a year. If the cost of the component is Rs. 12 and lot size is 10, determine the;
Storage expenses/year

Suppose the following item is being managed using a fixed-order quantity model with safety stock.
Annual Demand = 100,000 units
Order quantity = 30,000 units
Safety stock = 4000 units
What are the average inventory level and inventory turnover for this item?
Frety Limited sells therapeutic foam rollers for $55, and expects the demand for this product to be constant at 142 units per week. The foam rollers are ordered from a supplier at a price of $39, and each order takes three weeks to supply the product from the date that Frety Limited places an order. The business holds 130 units of the product as a safety buffer at all times. The cost of capital is 10%.
At what level of inventory (in units) should the business reorder the foam rollers?

He remembered his teacher telling him that inventory models can be used for both the raw materials as well as the finished products for a business like his. So, he decided to see if he could use the basic EOQ model for identifying how much quantity to order of raw materials such as eggs, flour, sugar, etc. To get started, he decided to create a model for flour based on the information he had on hand regarding potential costs as follows: Usage per month 100 lbs Purchase cost $1 per lb. Order cost $10.00 per order sent Annual Holding Rate 10% of purchase price per lb. 52-week year 300 working days per year Lead time 2 days Write a sentence explaining how Tyler should plan on ordering the flour for his bakery: how much to order and when to order (from the first…arrow_forward
