week 24. The current aggregate demand requirements for a firm are shown below for the next six
months:
The firm always plans to meet all demand. The firm currently has 120 workers capable of
producing 120 units in a month (1 unit/worker). The workforce can be increased (at a cost
of $500 per worker) or decreased (at a cost of $1,000 per worker). Inventory holding cost
is $100 per unit per month. The firm currently has 40 units of inventory on hand, and it
would like to have 40 units available at the end of each month. Regular production cost is
$3,000 per unit.
a. What should the aggregate plan be if the inventory holding cost is to be minimized?
b. What is the cost of this plan?
6. JokersRWild makes playing cards in several different styles, but a “standard” deck of
cards is used for planning purposes. The average worker at JokersRWild can make 10,000
sets of decks of cards per month at a cost of $1.00 per deck during regular production and
$1.30 during overtime. The company currently employs 25 workers. Experience shows that
it costs $500 to hire a worker and $500 to fire a worker. Inventory carrying cost is $.25 per
deck per month. Given the following demand estimate, develop a six-month production
plan based on level production, chase using overtime (no workers will be fired and
YOU CAN ALSO VISIT: WWW.HWSPEED.COM
inventory increases if necessary), and chase by changing workforce level. The beginning
inventory is 50,000, and at least that amount is desired each month.
The citation provided is a guideline. Please check each citation for accuracy before use.
8. Appliances Inc. is preparing an aggregate production plan for washers for the next four
months. The company’s expected monthly demand is given below in the chart. The
company will have 500 washers in inventory at the beginning of the month and desires to
maintain at least that number at the end of each month. Below is other critical data:
Production cost per unit = $300
Inventory carrying cost per month per unit = $50 (based on ending month inventory)
Hiring cost per worker = $1,000
Firing cost per worker = $2,000
Beginning number of workers = 10
Each worker can produce 100 units per month
Complete the tables and determine the cost of the two plans

Problem 8
New Time Videos (NTV) is a new online video rental service. In the field, it is trying to
compete by offering its customers access to all of the major new video releases in one
business day. That is, if you order a video from NTV, you can expect it in one business day
from the time when you placed the order. When you are done with the video, you simply
drop it in the prepaid mailing envelope and return it. All videos arrive in a sorting facility
located in the Midwest where envelopes with the videos are opened, checked (right video
with the right sleeve, no scratches, no cracks, no dirt on the videos), and made ready to be
sent out again. As the manager of this facility, your goal is to turn the returned videos
around in 6 hours (a shift is 8 hours long). You have the following information:
Top of Form
a. Calculate the expected average flow time (hint: Use Little’s Law).
b. What changes would you recommend to meet the goal of processing a returned video
within 6 hours?

PizzaTime Restaurants is building a new pizza place and needs to determine how big to
make the various parts of its facility. It wants to be able to accommodate a maximum of 500
customers per hour at its peak times. PizzaTime has collected the following information:

Item 2 = $60.00
Item 3 = $5.00
Item 4 = $10.00

inventory carrying cost for each item, and the total annual inventory carrying cost.
4. Again, using the data for Jones Company in problems 2 and 3, suppose Jones believes that
in the upcoming year, the rate of sales expected for each of the five items is as follows:
Item 1 = 4,000 units per day
Item 2 = 2,000 units per day
Item 3 = 15,000 units per day
Item 4 = 7,000 units per day
