e. ZEE is a product manufactured out of three raw materials M, N and Q. Each unit of ZEE requires 10 kg, 8 kg and 6 kg of M, N and Q, respectively. The re-order levels of M and N are 15,000 kg and 10,000 kg, respectively, while the minimum level of Q is 2,500 kgs. The weekly production of ZEE varies from 300 to 500 units, while the weekly average production is 400 units.
ADVERTISEMENTS:
You are required to compute:
(i) The minimum stock level of M.
(ii) The maximum stock level of N; and
(iii) The re-order level of Q.

In a factory component A is used as follows:
Normal usage – 50 kg per week
Minimum usage – 25 kg per week
Maximum usage – 75 kg per week
Re-order quantity 300 kg.
Re-order period 4 to 6 weeks.
Calculate for component A:
(i) Re-order level,
(ii) Maximum level.

Find out the Economic Order Quantity and Order Schedule for raw materials and packing materials with the following data given to you:
1. Cost of ordering: Raw Materials = Rs. 1,000 per order
Packing Materials = Rs. 5,000 per order
2. Cost of holding inventory: Raw Materials = 1 paisa per unit p.m.
Packing Materials = 5 paise per unit p.m.
3. Production rate: 2,00,000 units per month

h. Company uses 5,120 units of a component in a year. The purchase price per unit of the component is Rs. 5.00 and the carrying cost including interest is estimated at 20% of the average inventory investment on annual basis. The cost of placing an order and processing the delivery is Rs. 10.
(a) Ascertain the economic order quantity and the number of orders each of the economic order quantity, to be placed for the component in a year.
(b) Assuming that the average daily consumption of the above component is 14 units and that the normal lead time is 15 days, calculate the ordering level for the component, where safety stock is considered to be equal to 25 days’ consumption. State why ordering level is fixed.
