Answer

Total consumption can be calculated as follow

CT = OS + RS – (CS + loss)

= 600+2000- (210+650)

= 2600 – 860

= 1740 bottles
CT 1740
1. CA = . RM − Dos = 12− 0 = 145 bottles CT = Total Consumption
30.5 30.5
CA = Average monthly consumption
2. SS = LT x CA = 2 month x 145 bottles = 290 bottles
Qo = Quantity Order
3. Qo = CA (PP+ LT) + SS – (Si+So)
SS = Safety stock
= 145 (6+2) + 290 – (210+0)
Smax = Maximum stock
= 145 (8) + 290-210
Smin = Minimum stock
Qo = 1240 bottles
Rm = Reviewed Period in month
4. Smin = SS + (CA x LT)
Rm = 12 month
= 290 bottles + (145 x 2)
Os = Opening stock
= 580 bottles Rs = Received stock
5. Smax = Smin + CA x PP Cs = Closing stock
= 580 bottles + 145 x 6 LT = Lead time

= 580 bottles + 570 PP = Procurement Period

= 1450 bottles Si = Stock in inventory

So = Stock now order

Dos = Days out of stock
