__01. If annual usage for an inventory item is 50,000 units, lead time is three days, and safety stock is 100
units, the reorder points (ROP) are (note: this company is working 250 days during the year)2 pts.
__02. LEE is selling 4 computers every day. The ordering cost is $100 per order, and the computer costs
LEE $1,000(i.e., the price is $1,000). Orders arrive three days from the time they are placed.
Holding cost is equal to two percent (2%) of the cost of the computer. If LEE opens his store
250 days a year, what would be the average inventory level?
03. Which of the following is NOT an assumption of the economic order quantity model shown below? 2 pts.
Q*= where S = Ordering (or Setup) Cost and H = Holding (or Carrying) Cost
a. Demand is known, constant, and independent. b. Lead time is known and consistent.
c. Quantity discounts are not possible.
d. Demand is unknown and dependent on the market condition.
(04-05) LEE just opened the gift store in Glassboro. He purchases cards from Hall Marks for $10 each box. Lees
gift store expects to sell 10 boxes of cards a week. Lees store estimates it costs them $5.00 to place an
order, and the holding cost is about 20% purchase cost per box. It usually takes 5 days to get each order
because of its high demand.
04. What is inventory's economic order quantity (i.e., EOQ)(Find the nearest value)?
05. What is the annual total inventory cost per year (i.e. total ordering cost + total carrying cost )?
(06-08) The LEE's computer manufacturing company plans on the steady demand for a special part in its main CPU
of 20 units per day. If the part is purchased, it costs the company $30 per unit. The cost of placing an order
is $20 per order. The company's carrying cost is estimated to be 20 percent of the value of inventory (i.e.,20
% of purchasing price). Assume that LEE's company operates a 200-day working year and no shortages are
allowed due to the cost of disrupting the manufacturing process. (Choose the nearest value)
06. What is the average inventory? (2 pts)
07. What is the total inventory carrying costs (i.e., total carrying cost per year)?
08. What is the number of orders during the year (i.e., How often is LEE supposed to place an order

__Q9. For a certain item, the cost-minimizing order quantity obtained with the basic EOQ model is 200 units, and
