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?

The winston company estimates that the factory overhead for the following year will be $1,250,000. the company has decided that the basis for applying factory overhead should be machine hours, which is estimated to be 50,000 hours. the total machine hours for the year were 54,300. the actual factory overhead for the year were $1,375,000. determine the over- or underapplied amount for the year.
