Answer:

4000 bags

Explanation:

Annual demand (D) = 36,000 bags

Set up cost(S) = $200

Holding cost (H) = $3.6

Production rate (p) = 200 bags per day

Demand rate (d) = D/number of days per year = 36000/240 = 150 bags per day

1) Optimum production quantity(Q) = √{2DS / H [1-(d/p)]}

= √{(2 x 36000 x 200) /3.6[1-(150/200)]}

= √{14400000/3.6(1-0.75)

= √ [14400000/(3.6 x 0.25)]

= √(14400000/0.09)

= √16000000

= 4000 bags

Cerrena [4.2K]
<span>Maintaining an active lifestyle requires small but manageable changes in daily life. First of all, awareness is key. How many steps do you normally take? What do your work life and home life look like in terms of movement? Once someone knows what a typical day looks like, they can see where they are weak. Small changes can then be made, such as parking the car further from the store or taking walking breaks when sitting at the office desk for hours each day. Finally, an active lifestyle can be social. Being with friends does not have to revolve around food and drink; rather, friends can be enjoyed while playing leisurely sports (i.e., racquetball, tennis) or walking while conversing.</span>
