A manufacturing company producing medical devices reported $60,000,000 in sales over the last year. At the end of the same year,

the company had $20,000,000 worth of inventory of ready-to-ship devices. a. Assuming that units in inventory are valued (based on COGS) at $1,000 per unit and are sold for $2,000 per unit, how fast does the company turn its inventory? b. The company uses a 25% per year cost of inventory. That is, for the hypothetical case that one unit of $1,000 would sit exactly one year in inventory, the company charges its operations division a $250 inventory cost. What – in absolute terms – is the per unit inventory cost for a product that costs $1,000?

Answer:

a) The company completes its inventory turnover at 1.5 times.

b) The per unit inventory cost for a product priced at $1000 is $166.67.

Explanation:

a) number of units sold = ($60000000/year)*(1 unit/$2000)

                               = 30000 units/year

COGS = 30000 units/year*$1000/unit

           = $30000000/year

inventory = $20000000

flow time = inventory/flow rate

                = $20000000/30000000 per year

                = 0.67 years

inventory turns = 1/flow rate

                           = 1/(0.67)

                           = 1.5

Thus, the company turns its inventory at 1.5 times.

b) %inventory cost per device = 25%*0.6667 years

                                                   = 16.667%

16.667%*$1000 = $166.67 per unit

Hence, the per unit inventory cost for a product priced at $1000 amounts to $166.67.

Which of these is an example of delayed purchasing?
Mariulka [3182]
A case of delayed purchasing occurs when you're billed for a hot tub over 39 weeks while receiving the hot tub immediately. This resembles a car loan where you pay for the vehicle over time but can drive it home right after purchase. Therefore, the right answer is B.

Answer: The normative decision model by Vroom and Yetton.

Explanation:

The Vroom–Yetton normative decision model represents a situational leadership theory based in industrial and organizational psychology established by Victor Vroom, alongside Phillip Yetton and later with Arthur Jago. This theory posits that the optimal leadership style depends on the context.

In terms of decision-making, the Vroom-Yetton model highlights the necessity of sometimes being autocratic, seeking counsel, considering various approaches prior to making a decision, informing a group about an issue, and allowing that group to devise a solution without imposing one’s ideas.
