Q 1: “Super Pumps” imports industrial pumps to its office located in New Jersey, NY State. A
new pump manufacturer has been sourced in Portland, Oregon. Super Pump can purchase
directly from manufacturer, & transport to NY State by either truck/ship. If item is shipped by
truck, it’ll take 14 days at $3/unit. The co expects to purchase 2000 units/yr at $800/pump. In-
transit carrying cost of inv is estimated to be 20%/yr. Operations stated that they’d need to keep
safety stock of 80 units on hand if shipped by truck & 190 units if shipped by cargo. Which mode
of transp’n should the purchasing ee select & y?

Truck
Annual freight costs: 2000u * $3 = $6000
Annual in-transit HC: 2000u * $800 * .2 * (14/365) = $ 12273.97
Safety stock HC/yr: 80u * ($800 + $3) * .2 = $12848
Annual TC: $6000 + $12273.97 + $12848 = $31121.97

Ship
Annual freight costs: 2000u * $1 = $2000
Annual in-transit HC: 2000u * $800 *.2 * (35/365) = $30684.93
Safety stock HC/yr: 190u * ($800 + $1) * .2 = $30438
Annual TC: $2000 + $30684.93 + $30438 = 63122.93
