The two most basic inventory questions answered by the typical inventory model are

Timing of orders and order quantity

Which of the following would NOT generally be a motive for a firm to hold inventories

To minimize holding costs

control the likelihood of a stockout due to the variability of demand during lead time

Q is to ___________ systems as P is to _____________ systems

fixed quantity, fixed period

A product whose EOQ is 400 units experiences a 50% increase in demand. The new EOQ is:

increased by less than 50%

The main trait of a single period model is that

inventory has limited value after a certain period of time

When quantity discounts are allowed, the cost-minimizing order quantity

minimizes the sum of holding, ordering, and product costs

A product whose EOQ is 40 units experiences a decrease in ordering costs from $90 per order to $10 per order. the revised EOQ is:

one third as large

Most inventory models attempt to minimize

total inventory based costs

Suppose that papers for a newspaper stand cost .4 and sell for .8. they currently have no salvage value. If the stand owner is able to find an outlet that would provide a salvage value of .1, what would be the increase in service level

.07

A certain type of computer costs $1,000, and the annual holding cost is 25% of the value of the item. Annual demand is 10,000 units, and the order cost is $150 per order. What is the approximate economic order quantity?

110

If daily demand is normally distributed with a mean of 15 and standard deviation of 5, and lead time is constant at 4 days, 90 percent service level will require safety stock of approximately

13 units

In the basic EOQ model, if D=6000 per year, S=$100, and holding costs = $5 per unit per month, what is the EOQ?

141

In a safety stock problem where both demand and lead time are variable, demand averages 150 units per day with a daily standard deviation of 16, and lead time averages 5 days with a standard deviation of 1 day. What is the standard deviation of demand during lead time

154 units

The assumptions of the production order quantity model are met in a situation where annual demand is 3650 units, setup cost is $50, holding cost is $12 unit per year, the daily demand rate is 10 and the daily production rate is 100. What is the production order quantity for this problem?

184

A product that has a demand of 4000 units per year. ordering costs of 20$ and holding cost is 4$ per unit per year. the cost minimizing solution for this product is to order

200 units per order

A production order quantity problem has a daily demand rate = 10 and a daily production rate = 50. The production order quantity for this problem is approximately 612 units. What is the average inventory for this problem

245

For a certain item, the cost-minimizing order quantity obtained with the basic EOQ model was 200 units and the total annual inventory (carrying and setup) cost was $600. The inventory carrying cost per unit per year for this item is a. $1.50 b. $2.00 c. $3.00 d. $150.00 e. not enough data to determine

3.00

A specific product has demand during lead time of 100 units, with a standard deviation of 25 units. What safety stock (approximately) provides a 95% service level?

41

If daily demand is constant at 10 units per day, and lead time averages 12 days with a standard deviation of 3 days, 95 percent service requires a safety stock of approximately

49 units

A bakery wants to determine how many trays of doughnuts it should prepare each day. Demand is normal with a mean of 5 trays and standard deviation of 1 tray. If the owner wants a service level of at least 95%, how many trays should he prepare (rounded to the nearest whole tray)? Assume doughnuts have no salvage value after the day is complete.

7

A product has a demand of 4000 units per year. Ordering cost is $20, and holding cost is $4 per unit per year. The EOQ model is appropriate. The cost minimizing solution for this product will cost __________ per year in total annual inventory costs.

800

Which of the following is a function of inventory

All of the above are functions of inventory.

Among the advantages of cycle counting is that

Which of the following is not one of the four main types of inventory

Safety Stock Inventory

Which of the following should be higher in P systems than Q systems

Safety stock

The proper quantity of safety stock is typically determined by

Setting the level of safety stock so that a given stockout risk is not exceeded

The fixed-period inventory system requires more safety stock than a fixed-quantity system because:

a stockout can occur during the review period as well as during the lead time.

Demand for dishwasher water pumps is 8 per day. The standard deviation of demand is 3 per day, and the order lead time is four days. The service level is 95%. What should the reorder point be?

more than 40

A disadvantage of the fixed-period inventory system is that:

since there is no count of inventory during the review period, a stockout is possible.

ABC analysis is based upon the principle that

there are usually a few critical items, and many items that are less critical
