Basic Data Analysis: Analysis of Supplier Evaluation and Selection The attached MS EXCEL spreadsheet contains data about a company named ABC LLC and its suppliers. The highlights of the data include the following: The objective of the Data Analysis: To summarize information and help the manager determine the Suppliers that have performed well and which ABC LLC would like to continue doing business with such supplier(s). Note that ABC LLC is a retailer dealing with general merchandise (sells all the items listed under Item No.) QUESTIONS: Using MS EXCEL, determine the supplier capacity, the cost-effectiveness, and lead time (see i., ii & iii below) and present your answers as table(s), graph(s), and/or chart(s) in EXCEL - you are the one to decide the best way to present your answers. I strongly that you WATCH the video tutorials to learn the various ways to present information using tables, charts, and graphs. When you complete your work, submit the MS EXCEL file ONLY. i. Supplier Capacity: Which supplier(s) has the capacity (sufficient Supply base) to meet the demand needs of ABC LLC? (Hint: It is preferable to show more than one supplier for the purpose of comparison). 7.5 points. ii. Cost-Effectiveness: Which supplier offers the most cost-effective or competitive price per item? (Hint: It is preferable to show more than one supplier for the purpose of comparison). 7.5 points iii. Lead time: Determine how long does it take each supplier to ship the products to reach the buyer, in this case? (Hint: You can compute lead time by determining the 'difference' between when the order is placed and when the order arrives), etc. This is basic arithmetic (add/subtract) problem. I have given an example under HINTS below. 10 points. NOTES a. You must show ALL your WORKINGS in your MS EXCEL Spreadsheet(s) clearly demonstrating how you arrive at your results. b. After producing your results from the data analyses, present your results in clear formats using tables, graphs, and/or charts. Use your discretion. In the examples/Hints that I give below, I am using TABLES to present my answer. When you carry out data analysis, you are the one to determine the best way to present your results. It is not right to as me what I or the customer wants. Rather, it is what you deem fit or what you think is right. c. You must submit your EXCEL file. If you prefer, you may include further explanations in EXCEL. Note that you will obtain a ZERO grade if you do not submit the EXCEL File. This is Data Analysis using MS EXCEL, DO NOT USE Microsoft WORD. d. Useful Tutorial: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xLmtGk7Ymy8 e.

Please answer i, ii, and iii and show work. Thanks in advance!
