Atoy manufacturer makes its own wind-up motors, which are then put into its toys. while the toy manufacturing process is continuous, the motors are intermittent flow. data on the manufacture of the motors appears below. annual demand (d) = 50,000 units daily subassembly production rate = 1,000setup cost (s) = $85 per batch daily subassembly usage rate = 200carrying cost = $.20 per unit per year(a) to minimize cost, how large should each batch of subassemblies be? (b) approximately how many days are required to produce a batch? (c) how long is a complete cycle? (d) what is the average inventory for this problem? (e) what is the total annual inventory cost (holding plus setup) of the optimal behavior in this problem?

Robert just found out that he is going to be unemployed within a month because his factory has invested in a robotic factory line and his skills are no longer needed. this means that robert is . the gdp within country d has begun to decline. as a result of decreased production, thomas lost his job designing cars. this means that thomas is . raquel has just been offered a job, but she has decided not to take it because she feels her skills merit better pay and a better position. this means that raquel is .

You are a newspaper publisher. you are in the middle of a one-year rental contract for your factory that requires you to pay $500,000 per month, and you have contractual labor obligations of $1 million per month that you can't get out of. you also have a marginal printing cost of $.25 per paper as well as a marginal delivery cost of $.10 per paper. if sales fall by 20 percent from 1 million papers per month to 800,000 papers per month, what happens to the afc per paper?
