The question is incomplete. See the complete question and the answer below:
An auto parts shop carries an oil filter for trucks. The annual demand for the oil filter is roughly 1200 units. The ordering cost per order for the auto parts shop is $80; the holding cost of carrying 1 unit is $1.2 per year. The shop has 360 working days per year The lead time is usually 12 working days.
Determine the total carrying cost.
Answer:
Total carrying cost =$240
Explanation:
Given Data;
Annual demand (D) = 1200
Ordering cost (w) = $80
Per unit cost (cn) = $1.2
calculating the economic order quantity (EOQ) using the formula;
EOQ = √[(2Dw)/cn]
Where D = annual demand
w = ordering cost
cn = per unit cost
Substituting into the formula, we have
EOQ = √[(2*1200*80)/1.2]
EOQ = √(192,000/1.2)
= √160000
= 400 units
Number of orders = 1200/400
= 3 orders
Therefore,
Total carrying cost = number of order * ordering cost
Kotler refers to this as businesses "selling what they make, rather than making what the market wants to buy." ... Selling-era tactics can be risky for companies, as the hard sell can turn off consumers, perhaps even push them into the arms of a competitor.
The four largest manufacturing industries in America are computers and electronics; chemicals; food, beverages, and tobacco; petroleum and coal—account for about 51 percent of manufacturing GDP. The top nine sectors constitute approximately 79 percent of manufacturing GDP. These sectors accounted for 68 percent of total manufacturing employment in 2010.
From the above graph, we can see clearly that the technology sector had increased from $225billion in 2006 to about $360billion in 2011, which is about a 60% increase in a span of 5 years, thats a massive growth within a short period.
Concurrent control is adopted to regulate ongoing activities in an organization so that they can meet the company's standards. This type of control is chosen to ensure that the output will have the results expected. It implies measuring the quality of the processes at a certain point in time to determine to continue with them or not.
