2. If Jenjen printers’ cost to order is P108, the cost to carry an item in inventory is P75
; and if the company requires 5000 cans of ink during the year, what is the quantity of
cans of ink they should order to minimize the cost that they will incur?
Answer:
2 X 5000 X 108
EOQ = √

Assuming that Clyde’s stocking decision is optimal, what is the implied range of
excess cost per machine?
Answer:`
Similarly
Cs/Cs + Ce = .05, so Ce = $10-$0.5
Solving you find Cs= $9.5
Hence the apparent range of shortage cost is $8.5 and $9.5.
4. The Dine Corporation is both a producer and a user of brass couplings. The firm
operates 220 days a year and uses the couplings at a steady rate of 50 per day.
Couplings can be produced at a rate of 200 per day. Annual storage cost is $2 per
coupling, and machine setup cost is $70 per run.
Answer:
D = 50 x 220 = 11,000 units per year

6. A lab orders a number of chemicals from the same supplier every 30 days. Lead
time is five days. The assistant manager of the lab must determine how much of one
of these chemicals to order. A check of stock revealed that eleven 25-milliliter (ml)
jars are on hand. Daily usage of the chemical is approximately normal with a mean
of15.2 ml per day and a standard deviation of 1.6 ml per day. The desired service
level for this chemical is 95 percent. How many jars of the chemical should be
ordered?
Answer:
OI = 30 days
LT = 5 days
Expected demand
during protection
̅ ( OI + LT)
= d
interval
= 15.2 (30 + 5)
= 532 painkillers
= 15.61845063 painkillers
The problem asked is how much jars to order so we need to convert the 272.62
ml to jars:
272.62 ml
= 10.90 or 11 jars
25 ml per jar
d̅ = 42 per day
OI = 16 days
LT = 10 days
A = 428 painkillers
760
Desired service level = 760+40 = .95
Expected demand
during protection
̅ ( OI + LT)
= d
interval
= 42 (16 + 10)
= 1092
