Hi Sir,
Could you provide me with the workings for the following question
PQR Co has a demand of 7500 units per month. Each unit costs $5, ordering costs are $100 per order and the inventory holding cost is 10% of the purchase price per year.
There is a lead time of 30 days between placing an order and receiving delivery.
If they order the EOQ each time at what level of inventory should a new order be placed?
Answer = 7,397 units
I am able to calculate the EOQ which is 6,000 units but unsure how to get to the answer?
Thanks for your time
May 18, 2015 at 6:32 am #246731They need to order when they have enough left to last for the lead time.
The demand per day is (7500 x 12) / 365, and the lead time is 30 days.
So they need to order when they have 30 x 7500 x 12 /365 = 7,397 in inventory.
May 20, 2015 at 3:51 pm #247411Hey Sir
Could you please help me with the working of following question:Xplc has a dividend yield of 0.08% and dividend cover of 2.4
what is the P/E ratio?thankyou 🙂
May 20, 2015 at 5:19 pm #247434Dividend yield = Dividend / MV ( = 0.08)
So MV = Dividend / 0.08Dividend cover = EPS / Dividend ( = 2.4)
So EPS = Dividend x 2.4PE ratio = MV / EPS
= (dividend / 0.08) / (dividend x 2.4)
Divide top and bottom by dividend:
PE ratio = (1/0.08) / 2.4
= 12.5 / 2.4 = 5.21
