6. (15 points) Serum Institute of India (SIN) is the world's largest vaccine manufacturer located in Pune, India. Sil purchases the empty vials to store the produced vaccines from a supplier located in Chennai, India. SN purchases 50 million vials from the supplier each year at a price of $0.10 per vial. Each vial weighs 0.05 kgs (20 vials would weigh 1 kg). Following table shows the transportation options available. Si carries a safety inventory equal to 40% of the average demand for vials during the LOGM 4220: Supply Chain Management replenishment lead time. The holding cost rate is 25% per unit per year. Assume that there are 365 workdays per year. Also, assume that the transit time is lead time less one day. LOGM 4220: Supply Chain Management replenishment lead time.
