Extracted text: Question # 01. Maxima, a supermarket chain, orders 480,000 cans of frozen orange juice per year from a distributor. A 24-can case of frozen juices delivered to Maxima's warehouse cost Tk 4.80 including freight charges. Maxima borrows funds at a 10% interest rate to finance its inventories. Maxima has calculated that it cost Tk 15 to place an order for frozen juice and that the annual variable storage expense (electricity, insurance, handling) is Tk 0.08 for each can of juice. Required: a) Compute the number of case of frozen juice that Maxima should request in each order. b) Determine the order size decision that Maxima should make, if the distributor offers a 10% discount off the delivery price for minimum orders of 72,000 cans.
