| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) - uses 2 formulas (see slide 2 for formulas) | 1.new total annual cost formula, see slide 2 2.new order quantity formula (see slide 2) |
| Economic Production Quantity (EPQ) formulas | 1.key difference is that the entire order quantity does not arrive at the same time 2.assume there is a constant production rate, p units per period,slope = -D, slope = P-D |
| an EPQ example (see slide 3) | |
| setting the reorder level, R (see slide 4 for graph) | 1. with certainty 2. with uncertainty |
| setting the reorder level with no uncertainty | it’s simple: R = d•LT |
| with uncertainty, there are several factors to consider: | with uncertainty: R = d•LT + SS CONSIDER: 1.stockout cost 2.holding cost 3.demand variability 4.leadtime variability 5.may be based on some predetermined service level target, for example, no more than a 5% chance of a stockout |
