Company XYZ a baby ware makes company servers three regions near Iowa and maintains consignment inventory (owned by ZZY) at each location. Currently. ZZy uses refrigerated TL transportation to deliver separately to each customer. Each truck costs $700 plus $150 per stop. KAR Food is considering aggregating deliveries to Iowa on a single truck. A careful study of the sales regions revealed three large customers, three medium-sized customers, and ten small customers. Demand at the large customer is 60 tons a year, demand at the medium customer is 24 tons per year, and demand at the small customer is 8 tons per year. Product cost for ZZZY Company is $10,000 per ton, and it uses an annual holding cost of 25 percent. Truck capacity is 12 tons.
a. What is the annual transportation and holding cost if ZZY ships a full truckload to each customer when they are running out of stock?
b. What is the optimal delivery policy to each customer if ZZY Company ships separately to each of them? What is the annual transportation and holding cost?
c. What is the optimal delivery policy to each customer if ZZY Company aggregates shipments to each of the three customers on every truck that goes to Iowa? What is the annual transportation and holding cost?
d. Can you come up with a tailored policy that has lower costs than the policies in (b) or (c)? What are the costs and inventories for your suggested policy?

A woman sued a computer keyboard manufacturer, charging that her repetitive stress injuries were caused by the keyboard. The jury awarded about $3.5 million for pain and suffering, but the court then set aside that award as being unreasonable compensation. In making this determination, the court identified a "normative" group of 27 similar cases and specified a reasonable award as one within 2 standard deviations of the mean of the awards in the 27 cases. The 27 award amounts (in thousands of dollars) are in the table below.
| 33 | 60 | 75 | 115 | 135 | 140 | 149 | 150 |
| 232 | 290 | 340 | 410 | 600 | 750 | 750 | 750 |
| 1,050 | 1,100 | 1,139 | 1,150 | 1,200 | 1,200 | 1,250 | 1,574 |
| 1,700 | 1,825 | 2,000 |
What is the maximum possible amount (in thousands of dollars) that could be awarded under the "2-standard deviations rule"? (Round your answer to three decimal places.)

Teresa Greene owns and manages a craft and material shop called All Sewn Up. Most of the revenue of All Sewn Up is from the sale of craft materials, although some revenue is made by giving craft lessons to groups of six customers at a time. As Teresa’s shop relies on many suppliers of small amounts of different craft materials, she has difficulty keeping track of all her accounts payable. Teresa is not very well organised and so struggles to send out accounts to her customers or collect money from them. Teresa is considering implementing a computerised accounting system as she has been doing a computer course at a local TAFE and feels that it could help her to be more organised.

Required: (a) Discuss what source documents would be required in a manual accounting system in order to record the sales to customers and receipt of cash, and to ensure correct payment of money to suppliers? You should also discuss where the transactions should be recorded and the best way to manage the credit sales. Marks: 8
(b) In her computer course Teresa learnt that the focus in accounting should not be on bookkeeping but on the use of the information ‘inside the computer’ to make better decisions and to better manage the business. In what ways could a computerised accounting package such as Xero help Teresa make better decisions and manage her business better?
