Answer:

Reactively, Proactively.

Explanation:

The above statement deals computing forces companies dealings with customers. Generally, in real-life dealings, we cannot afford to have a choice between Proactive and Reactive approaches. Proactive approach is generally more effective in terms of avoiding /reducing loss of life and property etc. however, it depends on the situation, time available to take action and resource availability. I have seen that even in the case of worst natural disasters like cyclones , proactive approach by civic authorities ,on the basis of limited scientific forecast inputs available, helped in averting major damages.

However, if there is a sudden accident, we have no other choice but to react on the spot. In some situations, like disasters ( man-made or natural) , a combination of proactive and reactive approaches can be more effective.

Minimization of Shipping Costs to 3 Customers from 4 Locations:

Explanation:

a) Data and Calculations:

Shipping Costs per unit Plant Customer

c. $7125

Plants Customers

Production 1 2 3 Total

Demand units 75 units 100 units 175 units 350 units

A 100 units $25 $35 $15

B 100 units $20 $30 $40

C 100 units $40 $35 $20

D 50 units $15 $20 $25

To minimize shipping costs:

Satisfy Customer 1's 75 units from B = $20 x 75 = $1,500

Satisfy Customer 2's 25 units from B = $30 x 25 = 750

Satisfy Customer 2's 25 units from C = $35 x 25 = 875

Satisfy Customer 2's 50 units from D = $20 x 50 = 1,000

Satisfy Customer 3's 100 units from A = $15 x 100 = 1,500

Satisfy Customer 3's 75 units from C = $20 x 75 = 1,500

Daily minimum shipping cost = $7,125

Minimizing the shipping cost to a location is not considered in isolation. The other locations must be considered. For example, customer 1's shipping cost would have been minimized to $1,250 instead of $1,500 by shipping D's 50 units and B's 25 units. But, this would have increased the shipping cost to customer 2 by $500 from $2,625 to $3,125. Whereas, the company lost $250 shipping to customer 1, it gained $500 shipping to customer 2, thereby making a net gain of $250, instead of net loss of $250.
