Question 2

A caf uses the perpetual inventory system. Long-grain white rice has a par stock of 150 and daily usage of 15.

Management wants a safety net of 40 of rice in inventory on each delivery date, and it usually takes three days for the delivery to arrive once the order is placed. What is the reorder point and the reorder quantity?

Answer to Question 1

Empowerment is the process of involving team members in the management and leadership of
the team. This means that chef supervisors give team members some of the power of their
position. This giving up of power actually increases the chef supervisors' power because of the
elevation of their leadership and the overall productivity of the team.

Answer to Question 2
