You run a coffee shop where demand is constant week to week. You use 10 bags of roasted coffee each week. Currently, you order whole roasted coffee beans from an out-of-town supplier who charges $20 per bag and a fixed cost of $100 per delivery. Storage for each bag per month is estimated at $1. Assume your coffee shop operates for 52 weeks and 12 months per year. Assume there are no lead times. Required:
a. Under these costs, what is the optimal order size (in bags)?
b. How often (in months) do I place an order under my solution to part a?
c. What are my annual total costs (including purchasing costs) under my solution to part a?

the correct answer is:

it required the president to inform congress within forty-eight hours of any new troop commitment.

the war powers resolution (1973) is a federal law designed to limit the u.s. president’s ability to initiate or intensify military actions abroad without the approval of the congress.

it establishes that the president can send armed forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by congress, statutory authorization, or in case of a national emergency created by attack upon the united states, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

it requires the president to notify congress within 48 hours of sending armed forces to military action.
