Test: Inventory Control Level - 2 - Mechanical Engineering MCQ

If the annual demand of an item becomes half, ordering cost double, holding cost one-fourth and the unit cost twice, then what is the ratio of the new EOQ and the earlier EOQ? [Assume that carrying cost depends on unit cost]

A shop owner with an annual constant demand of 'A' units has ordering costs of Rs. 'P' per order and carrying costs Rs. 'I' per unit per year. The economic order quantity for a purchasing model having no shortage may be determined from

The annual demand for a product is 60,000 units, the ordering cost is Rs. 8000 per order. Considering Wilsons model, the EOQ is 12,000

units. When the annual inventory cost is minimized, the annual inventory holding cost is Rs ___________

A company has an annual demand of 3000 units, the ordering cost per order is Rs. 50 and the carrying cost is Rs. 5 per unit-year. The backorder costs are estimated as Rs. 20 per unit-year. The maximum inventory is (approximately)

Televisions are produced in batches. The production rate is 80 units/day. The demand during production period is 50 units/day. The set-up cost of manufacturing process is 3000 per set-up and holding cost is Rs. 15/unit/year. What is the economic batch size?

A manufacturing company has a contract to supply 5000 components to an automobile company per day. The manufacturing capacity of the company is 7000 components per day. The carrying cost of 1000 components is 20 paise per day. The set-up cost is Rs. 20. The total inventory cost per annum on optimum basis is __________

The annual demand for an item is 5200 units. The ordering cost is Rs. 200/order. The inventory holding cost on average inventory is 20%. The unit cost is Rs. 5 and the storage cost based on maximum inventory is 10 paise per unit per year. EOQ will be __________ units.

A company follows an EOQ system with the following data

Annual demand = 15,000 units

unit cost = Rs. 50

ordering cost = Rs. 240/order

carrying cost = 12% × unit cost

lead time = 15 days

safety stock = 150 units

The re-order level is __________ days.

In an ideal inventory control system, the economic lot size for a part is 200 units. If the annual demand for the part is increased by 4 times and carrying cost is decreased by ½, the new EOQ is __________

The demand during lead time is 250 units. The annual consumption is 4000 units. The company has a policy of EOQ ordering and maintains a buffer stock of 200 units. The reorder level is _____________ units.

Consider the following data:

Annual demand = 3000 units

Ordering cost = Rs. 100/order

Carrying cost = 25% of unit price

Optimal order quantity is

A washer manufacturing company has a contract to supply 5000 washers to an automobile industry per day. The company has a capacity to manufacture 10,000 washers/day and holding cost of one washer is Rs. 0.2 per year. Set up cost is Rs. 20. The length of the production cycle is approximately (in days) __________.

Annual consumption in ABC analysis can be represented as [D = annual demand, Q = ordering Quantity, Cu = unit cost]
