You manage the shipping of item #A452 from your supplier. The shipments for this item are delivered to the nearest port, and you have to transport them to the distribution center. You have two options, truck load (TL) and less than truck load (LTL). Your company needs 5000 units of #A452 per year and it is purchased at a price of $36 per unit. Each order costs $99. Your company uses a holding charge of 0.14, a cycle service level of 90% and 365 days per year for planning purposes. The truck load (TL) option costs $1200 per load. It takes 5 days to deliver and each truck can carry up to 1100 items. The less than truck (LTL) load option costs $2.1 per item. It takes 7 days to deliver. You have three options,
A: to use the TL and delivery full truck loads,
B: to use the TL and delivery the economic order quantity, and
C: to use LTL and deliver the economic order quantity.
For all following parts, consider transportation costs as an item cost unless otherwise specified. i. e., the total variable cost of #A452 in the Full truckload is $1200/1100items + $36/item = $37.0909090909/item.

Consider transportation costs as an item cost, and use the EOQ in whole numbers for calculation. Please provide your answers rounded to the closest dollar.

Amathematical approximation called the rule of 70 tells us that the number of years that it will take something that is growing to double in size is approximately equal to the number 70 divided by its percentage rate of growth. thus, if mexico's real gdp per person is growing at 7 percent per year, it will take about 10 years(=70/7) to double. apply the rule of 70 to solve the following problem. real gdp per person in mexico in 2005 was about $11,000 per person, while it was about $44,000 per person in the u.s. if real gdp per person in mexico grows at the rate of 5 percent per year: how long will it take mexico's real gdp per person to reach the level that the united states was at in 2005? (hint: how many times would mexico's 2005 real gdp per person have to double to reach the u.s.'s 2005 real gdp per person?
