Ans 3a.
Introduction
The definition of
quality is always a vigorously debated topic. Sometimes it looks to be
intuitive if we get right down to it. In fact, "quality" is a tough,
rather say an intuitive concept to define with any precision.
To go to the most
fundamental definition of quality in operation management, it can satisfy the
customers' expectations. Albeit this definition is too high level for adequate
consideration. For developing a complete and convincing definition of quality,
we need to consider some of the key dimensions of quality.

7/unit/year; Lead-Time: 5 weeks & Safety Stock: 250 units (5 Marks) –
Ans 3b.
Introduction
EOQ considers reordering timing, the cost being incurred for placing an
order, and the cost of storing the merchandise. In case a firm is often placing
small orders for maintaining a specific inventory level, the cost of ordering
is higher. Besides this, a need for additional storage space or warehousing
becomes necessary.
