Problem 13.3 Question Help Her operations manager is considering a new plan, which begins in January with 200 units of inventory on hand. Stockout cost of lost sales is $100 per unit. Inventory holding cost is $25 per unit per month. Ignore any idle-time costs. The plan is called plan A. Plan A: Vary the workforce level to execute a strategy that produces the quantity demanded in the prior month. The December demand and rate of production are both 1,600 units per month. The cost of hiring additional workers is $50 per unit. The cost of laying off workers is $75 per unit. Evaluate this plan. (Enter all responses as whole numbers.) Note: Both hiring and layoff costs are incurred in the month of the change. For example, going from 1,600 in January to 1,200 in February incurs a cost of layoff for 400 units in February Hire (Units) Layoff (Units) Ending Inventory 200 Stockouts (Units) 1 Period Month 0 December January 2 February 3 March 4 April 5 May 6 June 7 July 8 August Demand 1,600 1.200 1,700 1,700 1,800 2.200 2,100 1,800 1,800 Production 1,600 1,600 1,200 1,700 1,700 1,800 2,200 2.100 1,800 Enter your answer in the edit fields and then click Check Answer.
