Part 3: Problem Solving questions x 10 points per question - 70 points total) An addendum containing helpful information (e.g., formulas) is attached to the end of the exam for your convenience. Please note that not all items in the addendum will be used in the problems below. Also, some problems may not require you to refer to the addendum. 1) (10 points) You are deciding the unit load that will be used in a new warehouse in which items are stored in cartons which are placed on pallets. The pallets are block-stacked both in the facility and in trucks. The pallets are 40" wide, 48" deep, and 6" high and weigh 40 pounds each. The cartons are 8" wide, 10" long, and 10" high and weigh 40 pounds each You need to decide how many tiers of cartons to stack on each pallet. You are working in a location where storage space is extremely expensive, but labor and equipment are inexpensive. So your main goal is to utilize storage space both in the warehouse and in trucks-as efficiently as possible. Assume the pallets and cartons are extremely durable and will not be crushed no matter how much weight is placed on them. The maximum lifting capacity of the counterbalanced forklift that handles the unit loads is 4000 lbs, and its maximum fork height is 130". Assume the maximum clear height (for storing items) in the warehouse is 135" and the maximum clear height in the trucks is 90". a. How many cartons fit into one tier (i.c., one layer) on the pallet? b. Fill in the table below. Write "N/A" for any options that are not feasible due to height or weight limitations.

What is the best option? How many tiers of cartons should there be on each pallet? Why did you select this option?
