s to make sure her family members meet their daily nutritional requirements. Peg can buy two foods. Food 1 sells for $7 per pound and, each pound contains 3 units of vitamin A and 1 units of vitamin C. Food 2 sells for $1 per pound, and each pound contains 1 unit of each vitamin. Each day, the family needs at least 12 units of vitamin A and 6units of vitamin C.
(a) Verify that Peg should purchase 12 units of food 2 each day and thus oversatisfy the vitamin C requirement by 6 units.


(b )Al has put his foot down and demanded that Peg fulfill the family’s daily nutritional requirement exactly by obtaining precisely 12 units of vitamin A and 6 units of vitamin C. The optimal solution to new problem will involve ingesting less vitamin C, but it will be more expensive. Why?

sdas [7]

Amazon is fastest growing company in the world which has crossed 2 billion customer visits. It has also increased the worth of the company to $1.14 trillions. The supply chain management is where the strengths of the company lies and nobody can match the pricing strategy, quality management and other significant factors that are included in the supply chain management to ensure that the customer is having what they are paying for.

Supply chain management process includes the key partners which includes their suppliers, partners, clients and customers as well who play important roles in the supply chain process by coordinating, integrating systems with each other and are involved in the transaction-al process.

The customers are the one who interact fewer than partners, suppliers, clients, etc because all they do is order a particular product. This is the first interaction of the customer with Amazon and the last interaction is when the customer received the order. So this means they are less interacting party in this process.

Suppliers are continuously contacted and informed about the pricing, supply chain issues, etc so that the company is able to deliver its customers what they are desiring. Supply chain partners also in the process of interacting with Amazon as they have to move products from supplier to the customer.

WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

Break Even Point

In Units = 2,000 units

In value = $80,000

Explanation:

Break even Point = \frac{Fixed\ Cost}{Contribution}

When we use contribution per unit, we get the break even point in units sales.

When we use the contribution margin as a percentage of sales we get break even sales in value.

Contribution per unit = $20

Contribution margin in percentage = $20/$40 = 50%

Therefore, Break even Point in units = \frac{40,000}{20} = 2,000

Break even units = 2,000

Break Even Point in value = \frac{40,000}{0.50} = 80,000

Sales to be made in value at break even = $80,000
