SY Manufacturers (SYM) is producing T-shirts in three colors: red, blue, and white. The monthly demand for each color is 1,457 units. Each shirt requires 0.75 pound of raw cotton that is imported from the Luft-Geshfet-Textile (LGT) Company in Brazil. The purchasing price per pound is $8.30 (paid only when the cotton arrives at SYM's facilities) and transportation cost by sea is $0.70 per pound. The traveling time from LGT’s facility in Brazil to the SYM facility in the United States is two weeks. The cost of placing a cotton order, by SYM, is $51 and the annual interest rate that SYM is facing is 21 percent of total cost per pound.

a. What is the optimal order quantity of cotton? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

b. How frequently should the company order cotton? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

c. Assuming that the first order is needed on 20-Jan, when should SYM place the order?

• 6-Jan

• 20-Jan

• 3-Feb

d. How many orders will SYM place during the next year? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

e. What is the resulting annual holding cost? (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

f. What is the resulting annual ordering cost?

A stint for use in coronary surgery requires a special coating. Specifications for this coating call for it to be at least 0.05 millimeters but no more than 0.15 millimeters. Suppose the process has a normal distribution with a long-run average of 0.09 millimeters and a standard deviation of 0.015 millimeters. (You need to show your work, rather than only a final answer.)

1. What is the C_p of the process? (2 points)
2. Does this process meet specifications according to the C_pk index? (2 points)
3. Assuming that the process mean of 0.09 cannot be changed, what process standard deviation would be required for this process to be a 6-sigma process? (3 points)
