a. Determine the economic order quantity for these flash transistors. b. Determine the reorder point for a 95% service level.Question 1
DiskSan has to order flash transistors ( $9 each) to create USB flash memory drives. Their monthly
demand is 15,000 units, their holding cost (which is mostly comprised of obsolescence costs) is 12%
per month per dollar in inventory, and the setup costs for an order is $12(mostly paperwork etc.).
Determine the economic order quantity for these flash transistors.
Round your answer to an integer order amount.
Question 2
One of the most-often sold items at a grocery store is milk. The daily demand for milk at a local
grocery store is 2200 half gallon jugs that sell for $1.5 each. The standard deviation in demand is
318 half gallon jugs per day, and the holding costs can be estimated at 4% per day (i.e., cooling cost,
as well as the cost of having to throw out milk that has passed its sell-by date). The cost for an order
is $102 based on the fee paid to the party that delivers the milk (who needs three days to deliver a
new batch). Determine the reorder point for a 95% service level.
Round your answer to an integer number of half gallon jugs.
 a. Determine the economic order quantity for these flash transistors. b.
