Problem 1 (25 points) True/False 1-1.

Problem 1 (25 points) True/False 1-1. (True/False) Deeper lanes are more susceptible to honeycombing; but shallow lanes use more space for accessibility. 1-2. (True/False) Dedicated storage is recommended to manage a forward-pick area while shared storage is used in a reserve-pick area. 1-3. (True/False) Suppose your customers move to a more "just-in-time" purchasing pattern and now order twice as often but half as much with each order. This makes your forward carton-pick-from-pallet area less valuable because doubling the picks without increasing the restocks means the net-benefit per unit-space for every SKU will strictly decrease. Short Answers 1-4. Consider a unit-load warehouse that is rectangular, of dimension m x n (with m >> n). If it is to be laid out with receiving and shipping on opposite sides, is it more efficient to run aisles parallel to the long or the short side of the warehouse? 1-5. Suppose that you have planned a layout for floor storage with one global, optimal lane depth for your SKUs. Subsequently you learn that inventory levels will be a quarter of what you had expected, how does this change the optimal lane depth
