For a certain item, the cost-minimizing order quantity obtained with the basic EOQ model is 200 units, and the total annual inventory (carrying and setup) cost is $600. What is the inventory carrying cost per unit per year for this item?
In: Operations Management
The assumptions of the production order quantity model are met in a situation where annual demand is 3650 units, the setup cost is $50, holding cost is $12 per unit per year, the daily demand rate is 10 and the daily production rate is 100. The production order quantity for this problem is approximate.

Two children, Ferdinand and Isabella, are playing with a water hose on a sunny summer day. Isabella is holding the hose in her hand 1.0 meters above the ground and is trying to sprayFerdinand, who is standing 10.0 meters away.
Part A
Will Isabella be able to spray Ferdinand if the water is flowing out of the hose at a constant speed v0 of 3.5 meters per second? Assume that the hose is pointed parallel to the ground and take the magnitude of the acceleration g due to gravity to be 9.81 meters per second, per second.
Part B
To increase the range of the water, Isabella places her thumb on the hose hole and partially covers it. Assuming that the flow remains steady, what fraction f of the cross-sectional area of the hose hole does she have to cover to be able to spray her friend?
Assume that the cross-section of the hose opening is circular with a radius of 1.5 centimeters.
Express your answer as a percentage to the nearest integer.
