Here is the "Delta Products" case for Graduate Operations. You need to determine the number of hours for Mike's and Nikki's plan. To do this you need to compute the number of hours required for each option. You also should check Nikki's calculations for EOQ.  When you have calculated the hours and checked the calculations for EOQ you need to submit a memo to your manager outlining your findings. Submit this memo along with a one page Excel spreadsheet that shows your calculations for Mike and Nikki's hours in addition to Nikki's EOQ calculations. Remember, the memo should be no more than one page long (preferably one-half page).

1. Are Nikki's EOQ computations correct?

2.  Whose proposal should be accepted?

3.  Are their any other possibilities to reduce costs?    

4.  Finally, in your last sentence, tell your supervisor what you learned in the analysis.
