Question: 2 ) A retail store sells 2 4 , 0 0 0 units of a product annually. The cost to place an order is 5

2) A retail store sells 24,000 units of a product annually. The cost to place an order is 500, and the holding cost per unit per year is 20. The lead time to receive an order is 6 days. The store operates 300 days a year and wants to avoid stockouts.
a) Calculate the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) using the EOQ formula.
b) Calculate the Reorder Point (ROP) to ensure timely replenishment.
Formulas:
EOQ =(2DS / H)
ROP = d L
Where:
D = Annual demand
S = Ordering cost per order
H = Holding cost per unit per year
d = Daily demand = D / number of operating days
L = Lead time in days
Final Answer should include:
EOQ (rounded to nearest whole number)
ROP (rounded to nearest whole number)
A factory manufactures two products: A and B.
Product A: Selling Price 300, Variable Cost 180
Product B: Selling Price 500, Variable Cost 300
Fixed Costs: 6,00,000 per year
Sales Mix: 3 units of A for every 2 units of B
a) Calculate the weighted average contribution margin (CM) per unit.
b) Determine the break-even point in total units, and find how many units of each product the company must sell to break even.
Formulas:
CM per unit = Selling Price Variable Cost
Weighted CM =(CM_A proportion_A)+(CM_B proportion_B)
Break-even units = Fixed Costs / Weighted CM
Product A units = Break-even units (3/5)
Product B units = Break-even units (2/5)
Final Answer should include:
Break-even total units (rounded)
Units of Product A
Units of Product B
