Using JIT to minimize waste and lost opportunity
May Motz is the editor-in-chief of her school’s yearbook. The school has 1,000 students and 60 faculty and staff members. The firm engaged to print copies of the yearbook charges the school $13 per book and requires a 10-day lead time for delivery. May and her editors plan to order 800 copies to sell at the school fair for $20 each.
Required
If the school sells 700 yearbooks, what amount of profit will it earn? What is the cost of waste due to excess inventory?
If 150 buyers are turned away after all yearbooks have been sold, what amount of profit will the school earn? What amount of opportunity cost will the school incur?
How could May use a JIT inventory system to maximize profits by eliminating waste and opportunity cost?
