Four types of products (P1 to P4) are going to be stocked and their information are given in Table Q3. Figure Q3 shows the side view of this storage rack where A1, A2 to E6. E6 is the storage grid (also called compartment) addresses. There are two ports (Port-1 and Port-2) located at both ends of the rack. The utilizations of Port-1 and Port- 2 are 20% and 80% respectively. It has been estimated that a vertical move needs 50% more effort than a horizontal move, and the cost of making a horizontal move is $0.3 per grid. Table Q3 - Product Information Figure Q3(a) - Schematic View of Storage Rack Side (a) Determine the transportation frequency of each product at each dedicated grid. (4 marks) (b) Show the steps on assigning products to grips to achieve optimal operating cost. (12 marks) (c) How should products be assigned to the rack to obtain the optimal operating cost by completing the following grids with product labels (P1 to P4)? Reproduce Figure Q3(b) in your answer book. (4 marks) (d) Determine the total optimal operating cost per period.
