Explain why you agree or disagree with the following statements.

If I were to supply my kitchen with fresh food, I can use the fixed-order quantity model because , like most people, I only go to the grocery store when the supply is low and since the number of people who consume the food stays the same, I would purchase the same amount. On the other hand, if I were to obtain a daily newspaper, I would use the fixed- time period model because it would only be a one-time purchase. Lastly, if I were to buy gas for my car, I would use the fixed-order quantity model because it is refilled when or before it hits empty. The usage of the gas varies so the time to refill it also differs.

With so much productive capacity and room for expansion in the United States, a company based in the United States would choose to purchase items from a foreign firm for several reasons. Products from foreign firms are generally more affordable but are of high quality. Labor wages associated with producing these products are much lower in foreign countries than in the United States. Lower costs help the company generate higher revenues. Also, in some countries, laws and regulations are less strict than in the United States.

However, purchasing items from a foreign firm also has disadvantages. Purchasing items from a foreign firm involves higher transportation and tax-related costs. Language barrier and cultural differences are also present in business operations in a foreign market.

Companies in the United States often choose to source items from foreign firms due to cost reasons. Some countries that function as manufacturing hubs have lower wage rates or relaxed working regulations which create cost savings that can be passed on to purchasing companies. Another possible explanation for sourcing items from other companies could be manufacturing efficiency. If a necessary component for a product is manufactured near another component then it may make sense to choose to source the component from that country instead of moving the components around and increasing costs.
