Solution:
(a) Unit fill rate is calculated as;
Unit fill rate = Total Units Delivered / Total Units Ordered
Unit fill rate = (12,800 / 16,000) x 100
Unit fill rate = 80%
(b) Line fill rate is calculated as;
Line fill rate = Total Complete Order Lines Delivered / Total Order Lines
Line fill rate = (2,325 / 3,100) x 100
Line fill rate = 75%
(c) Order fill rate is calculated as;
Order fill rate = Total Complete Orders Delivered / Orders Received
Order fill rate = (350 / 500) x 100
Order fill rate = 70%
