Sterling Corporation has an EOQ of 5,000 units. The company uses an average of 500 units per day. An order to replenish the part requires a lead time of five days. Required: 1. Calculate the reorder point, using Equation 20.3. 2. Graphically display the reorder point, where the vertical axis is inventory (units) and the horizontal axis is time (days). Show two replenishments, beginning at time zero with the economic order quantity in inventory. 3. What if the average usage per day of the part is 500 units but a daily maximum usage of 575 units is possible? What is the reorder point when this demand uncertainty exists?

1. Annual Demand is 450 units. The cost to place an order is $80 and holding cost is 25% per year of the cost of the item. The supplier has just submitted the following cost schedule to you. Quantity Price EOQ Feasible? 1 to 50 $60 51-100 $54 Over 100 $51 a) Calculate the EOQ for each Price. Determine which are feasible. Fill in above. ( b) Is the EOQ for the lowest unit price feasible? If not, compare total cost at all break quantities larger than the feasible EOQ. c) What decision would you make?
The ordering cost for a certain product is $8 per order and the holding cost is $1 per year. The annual demand is 2400 units. Consider the following ordering plans: plan 1: Order all 2400 at one time plan 2: Order 400 once each quarter plan 3: Order 100 once each month Determine: (a) Calculate the annual total costs associated with each plan (plan 1, 2 and 3), and compare the costs (total cost, holding costs and ordering cost). (b) Is there another plan, cheaper than any of these? Calculate the total cost of the cheaper or optimal plan; and for the optimal plan determine how many times in a year an order needs to be in place. (c) In the basic EOQ model, if the cost of placing an order doubles, and all other values remain constant, will the new EOQ increase or decrease then by what percentage.
