Meadow Logistics, Incorporated (MLI) distributes food purchased in bulk to small retailers. The firm is divided into two divisions: Purchasing and Distribution. Purchasing is responsible for ordering goods from the manufacturer, receiving them, and then moving them to the appropriate location in the warehouse. Distribution is responsible for taking orders from retailers, picking the products from the warehouse for the orders, and packaging the orders for shipment. MLI has a policy of filling every order on the day of the order. If the firm is out of a particular item, it will ship a partial order and complete the order when the item is back in stock. Occasionally, an order will not have to be packaged if the retailer chooses to take delivery at the MLI loading dock. Distribution has 20 employees who are responsible for the activities, and all 20 are trained to handle any of the three tasks. Each of these employees works 40 hours per week for 50 weeks. There is an allowance of 18 percent of the employees' time for training and other administrative tasks. The total costs of distribution for the coming year are estimated to be $900,600.
