MissTica

Answer:

a. Borrow using short-term notes payable and use the cash to increase inventories.

Explanation:

The formula to compute the current ratio is shown below:

Current ratio = Total Current assets ÷ total current liabilities  

where,

The current assets = Cash and cash equivalents + Short-term investments + Accounts and notes receivable + Inventories + Prepaid expenses and other current assets

The center of gravity method determines the best x and y coordinates for multiple faclities by finding a central location and th
babymother [125]

Answer:

The answer is True.

Explanation:

The center of gravity method is a concept under <em>Operations Management</em> as it relates to facilities distribution such as warehouses or fulfillment centers.

Center of Gravity Strategy/Method is defined as a concept that seeks to calculate geographic coordinates for a potential single new facility that will minimize costs. Under this approach the main factors considered are:

  • Cost of Shipping
  • Markets
  • Volume of goods shipped

Operations managers prefer to use this approach in siting the location of their facilities because:

  • It minimizes cost.
  • It is simple to compute
  • It takes in to consideration existing facilities

How to use the Center of Gravity Method

Step 1:

  • Place existing facility(ies) such warehouse, fulfillment center, and distribution center locations in a coordinate grid.
  • situate the grid on an ordinary map.
  • The distances between the facilities must be noted.

Step 2:

Then, using the equations below,

   Fx= ∑ dix Vi/ ∑ Vi

   Fy= ∑ diy Vi/ ∑ Vi

Proceed to calculate the X and Y coordinates using these equations where Fx is the X (horizontal axis) coordinate for the new facility, and

Fy is the Y (vertical axis) coordinate for the new facility, dix is the X coordinate of the current location, diy is the Y coordinate of the existing location, and Vi is the volume of goods moved to or from the <em>i</em>th location.

Step 3:

After you have obtained the X and Y coordinates place that location on the map.

This approach allows for point of departure – or, literally, a starting point of where (from the perspective of longitude and latitude) you options are for where to grow your fulfillment or logistics network.

Cheers!
