Which of the following are warehouse layouts that allow the cross aisle to meet picking aisle at angles different from 90 degrees?
1. 'Fan' shaped layout
2. Herringbone-shaped layout
3. U-shape layout
4. L-shape layout

  1. 1 and 2 only
  2. 3 and 4 only
  3. 1 and 3 only
  4. 2 and 3 only

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

In a traditional warehouse, storage racks are arranged to create parallel picking aisles, perhaps with one or more cross aisles to allow workers to move quickly between picking aisles. This structure forces workers to travel rectilinear distances (north-south and east-west) to picking locations.



Kevin R. Gue and Russell D. Meller proposed alternative aisle designs:
- The 'Fan' shaped layout (or "Flying V"). This layout maintains parallel picking aisles, but al-lows the cross aisle to take on a different shape. If travel begins and ends at the bottom of the V, Gue and Meller expected distance to retrieve a single pallet is 10% less in this warehouse than in an equivalent traditional design.
- The Herringbone-shaped layout (or commonly referred as Fishbone layout) combines the verti-cal picking rows of a traditional warehouse with a second set of horizontal picking rows, divided by a V- shaped diagonal alley crossing the entire warehouse. This simple modification to the typical warehouse design allows employees (e.g. a forklift driver) to increase travel speed between picking locations. Efficiency gains achieved through a layout reconfiguration would reduce picking cost up to 23% compared to an equivalent warehouse using a traditional configuration.

ANTA Logistics is looking for a place to build a new, integrated cold chain facility, "Chill Hub", to its customers.
Which of the following need to be considered when selecting the location of the new facility? Select TWO that apply.

  1. Availability of the building
  2. Ease of objective forecasting on inventory level
  3. Volume of obsolescent stock
  4. Accessibility to roads and highways
  5. Availability of product coding system

Answer(s): A,D

Explanation:

There are many different factors that must be considered when assessing warehouse and stock locations:
- Operating cost of the location or area
- Availability and suitability of warehouses
- Availability of manpower or labour
- Proximity to suppliers and customers
- Access to transport infrastructure (domestic and international) - The political and security environment of the location LO 1, AC 1.1



The ABC approach involves classifying inventory items by unit cost, with expensive items classi-fied as `A' items and low cost items classified as `C' items. Is this statement true?

  1. Yes, 'A' items represent approximately 20% of total unit prices
  2. Yes, 'C' items with the lowest unit prices are the tail spends
  3. No, ABC analysis considers the usage of each inventory item
  4. No, ABC analysis considers the supply risks associated with an inventory item

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

ABC analysis is an approach for classifying inventory items based on the items' consumption val-ues. Consumption value is the total value of an item consumed over a specified time period, for example a year. The approach is based on the Pareto principle to help manage what matters and is applied in this context:
- A items are goods where annual consumption value is the highest. Applying the Pareto principle (also referred to as the 80/20 rule where 80 percent of the output is determined by 20 percent of the input), they comprise a relatively small number of items but have a relatively high consumption value. So it's logical that analysis and control of this class is relatively intense, since there is the greatest potential to reduce costs or losses.
- B items are interclass items. Their consumption values are lower than A items but higher than C items. A key point of having this interclass group is to watch items close to A item and C item classes that would alter their stock management policies if they drift closer to class A or class C. Stock management is itself a cost. So there needs to be a balance between controls to protect the asset class and the value at risk of loss, or the cost of analysis and the potential value returned by reducing class costs. So, the scope of this class and the inventory management policies are determined by the estimated cost-benefit of class cost reduction, and loss control systems and processes.
- C items have the lowest consumption value. This class has a relatively high proportion of the total number of lines but with relatively low consumption values. Logically, it's not usually cost-effective to deploy tight inventory controls, as the value at risk of significant loss is relatively low and the cost of analysis would typically yield relatively low returns.

Which of the following costs does the EOQ minimise?

  1. Total cost of safety stock
  2. Total cost of ordering inventory
  3. Total cost of annual inventory cost
  4. Total cost of carrying stock

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

Economic order quantity (EOQ) was developed in 1913 by Ford W. Harris and has been refined over time. The formula assumes that demand, ordering, and holding costs all remain constant. The EOQ minimizes the total annual inventory cost.
EOQ formula is as follow:

A major investment bank is planning to purchase a complex banking system that will interface with multiple applications at varying times of the day. Before deploying the system, there are various levels of testing that must be performed through joint testing between the in-house team and off- shore testing consultants. The testing will be performed in a resource-constrained shared environment and managed by the on-shore development team. The costs for testing are generally classified as...?

  1. Insurance
  2. Maintenance costs
  3. Acquisition costs
  4. Purchase prices

Answer(s): C

Explanation:

In the scenario, the buying organisation (investment bank) must conduct various types of testing before the deployment of the software system. These tests can be functional testing, factory ac- ceptance testing and/or user acceptance testing. The costs for all these types of testing are classified as acquisition costs with regards of total cost of ownership.
