Assignment Ch12(b) A small manufacturing firm uses approximately 3400 pounds of chemical dye per year. Currently the firm purchases 300 pounds per order and pays $3 per pound. The ordering cost is $100 and inventory carrying cost is 51 cents per unit per year. D= 3400, S= 100, H=.51 a) The supplier has just announced that orders of 1000 pounds and more will be filled at a price of $2 per pound. Determine the order size that will minimizes the total cost. b) If the supplier offered a discount at 1500 pounds instead of 1000 pounds, what order size will minimize total cost?

The Problem: Part B D= 3400, S=100, H= .51 TC = HQ/2 + SD/Q + PD b) If the supplier offered a discount at 1500 pounds instead of 1000 pounds, what order size will minimize total cost? Q P 0-... 3 ≥1500 2 D= 3400, S=100, H= .51 TC = HQ/2 + SD/Q + PD TC ( Q = 1155 , P = 3) = 0.51(1155)/2 + 100(3400)/1155 + 3(3400) TC = 294.5 + 294.5 + 10200 = 10789 TC ( Q = 1500 , P = 2) = 0.51(1500)/2 + 100(3400)/1500 + 2(3400) TC = 382.5+226.7 +6800 = 7409.2
