Question 1

A shipment of parts valued at $75,000 needs to be shipped from Tampa, FL, to Chicago, IL. They could be shipped by rail, taking 15 days at a cost of $1,575, or by truck, taking 4 days at a cost of $2,640. The annual holding cost rate for this type of item has been estimated at 22%. What option is more economical?

Question 2

A transportation firm spends 60% of its sales in the supply chain, and has a net profit margin of 6%. The company is about to invest $100,000 in one of two ventures. One venture is advertising-based, and is expected to increase revenues (sales) by $600,000 (after spending the $100,000). The other venture applies the money in supply-chain efficiencies that are expected to save $200,000 (again, after spending the $100,000). Which of these two ventures offers the larger increase in profit to the firm? Use Table 11.3, reproduced below.
