It uses an EOQ decision model to make inventory decisions. It is now considering inventory decisions for its Los Angeles Galaxy soccer jerseys product line. This is a highly popular item. Data for 2013 are as follows:Expected annual demand for Galaxy jerseys 10,000Ordering cost per purchase order $200Carrying cost per year $7 per jerseyEach jersey costs FB $40 and sells for $80. The $7 carrying cost per jersey per year consists of the required return on investment of $4.80112%*$40 purchase price2plus $2.20 in relevant insurance, handling, and storage costs. The purchasing lead time is 7 days. FB is open 365 days a year.1.Calculate the EOQ.2.Calculate the number of orders that will be placed each year.3.Calculate the reorder point.P20-26EOQ, uncertainty, safety stock, reorder point.Stewart Corporation is a major automobile manufacturer. It purchases steering wheels from Coase Corporation. Annual demand is 10,400 steering wheels per year or 200 steering wheels per week. The ordering cost is $100 per order. The annual carrying cost is $13 per steering wheel. It currently takes 1.5 weeks to supply an order to the assembly plant.1.What is the optimal number of steering wheels that Stewartâs managers should order according to theEOQ model?2.At what point should managers reorder the steering wheels, assuming that both demand and purchase- order lead time are known with certainty?3.Now assume that demand can vary during the 1.5-week purchase-order lead time. The following table shows the probability distribution of various demand levels:Total Demand for Steering Wheels for 1.5 Weeks Probability of Demand (sums to 1)100 0.15200 0.20300 0.40400 0.20500 0.05If Stewart runs out of stock, it would have to rush order the steering wheels at an additional cost of $9 per steering wheel. How much safety stock should the assembly plant hold? How will this affect the reorder point and reorder quantity.
