Prince​ Electronics, a manufacturer of consumer electronic​ goods, has five distribution centers in different regions of the cou

ntry. For one of its​ products, a high speed modem priced at ​$370 per​ unit, the average weekly demand at each distribution center is 75 units. Average shipment size to each distribution center is 350 ​units, and the average lead time for delivery is 2 weeks. Each distribution center carries 2 ​weeks' supply as safety stock but holds no anticipation inventory.(a) On average, how many dollars of pipeline inventory will be in transit to each distribution center?(b) How much total inventory (cycle, safety, and pipeline) does Prince hold for all five distribution centers?

Answer:

(a) $55,500

(b) 2,375

Explanation:

As per the data given in the question,

a)

Cycle inventory = Average demand × lead time

= 75 × 2

= 150 units

Value of cycle inventory = 150 units × price

= 150 × $370

= $55,500

b)

Cycle inventory to each distribution center = 350 ÷ 2

= 175

Safety stock for each distribution center = Avg weekly demand × 2 weeks

= 75×2

= 150 units

Total inventory = Cycle inventory + pipeline inventory + safety stock

= 175+150+150

= 475 units

Total inventory for all 5 distribution center = 475×5

= 2,375

MAVERICK [17]

Answer:

Contribution margin for :

    STRIP PLANK     Income Statement

$ 360,000  $ 190,000 Total Net Sales

-$ 225,000 -$ 120,000 Variable Cost

$ 135,000    $ 70,000 Contributing Margin

It's more effective to keep the parquet product line, the company get

an extra return of $5,000.

Explanation:

With all the product line operating these are the results:

STRIP PLANK PARQUET Total Income Statement

$ 400,000 $ 200,000 $ 300,000 $ 900,000 Total Net Sales

-$ 225,000 -$ 120,000 -$ 250,000 -$ 595,000 Variable Cost

$ 175,000 $ 80,000 $ 50,000 $ 305,000    Contributing Margin

-$ 35,000 -$ 10,000 -$ 25,000 -$ 70,000 Depreciation

$ 120,000 $ 40,000 -$ 45,000 $ 115,000 Segment Margin

If the company keeps the parquet line will get worst result during the year.

The demand for yak butter is given by 150 – 3pd and the supply is 3ps – 30, where Pa is the price paid by demanders and ps is th
andreev551 [17]

Answer:

1) Attached

2) 150-3p = 3p-30

3) P=30, Q=60

4) 150-3p = 3p-90

5) P=40 and Q=30

6) Ps=Pd+10

7) P=35, Q=45

8) P=45, Q=45

Explanation:

We can write the equation for the quantity demanded as:

Q_d=150-3p_d

And the equation for the quantity supplied as:

Q_s=3p_s-30

1) Attached

2) The equilibrium price can be calculated by making the quantity supplied equal to quantity demanded:

Q_s=Q_d\\\\3p-30=150-3p\\\\6p=150+30=180\\\\p=180/6=30

3) The equilibrium price is P=30.

The equilibrium quantity can be calculated as:

Q_s=150-3*30=150-90=60

The equilibrium quantity is Q=60.

4) The supply now becomes:

Q'_s=3p_s-90

The equation for the new equilibrium price is:

Q_d=Q'_s\\\\150-3p=3p-90\\\\6p=150+90=240\\\\p=240/6=40

Qd=150-3*40=150-120=30

5) The new equilibrium is at p=40 and Q=30

6) They will receive

p_s=p_d+subsidy=p_d+10

7)  In this case, the quantity supplied becomes:

Q_s=3p_s-90=3(p+10)-90=3p+30-90=3p-60

The new price equilibrium becomes P=35:

Q_s=Q_d\\\\3p-60=150-3p\\\\6p=150+60\\\\p=210/6=35

The quantity for this equilibrium is Q=45:

Q_d=150-3*35=150-105=45

8) Now, the equations for demand and supply are:

Q_s=3p-90\\\\Q_d=150-3(p-10)=150-3p+30=180-3p

The equilibrium price and quantity becomes:

Q_d=Q_s\\\\180-3p=3p-90\\\\6p=180+90\\\\p=270/6=45\\\\\\Q_d=180-3*45=180-135=45
