NEW QUESTION # 315
As interest rates rise, what will MOST likely be the effect on supply?

A. Bond prices will rise, forcing suppliers to pay more for capital investments.
B. Suppliers will lock in raw material prices in anticipation of price increases.
C. The risk of supplier stock outs will increase due to higher costs of holding inventory.
D. Suppliers will delay shipments by selling to other customers.

Answer: C

Explanation:
As interest rates rise, the cost of borrowing and the opportunity cost of holding inventory increase. Suppliers are likely to reduce their inventory levels to minimize these costs, which in turn raises the risk of stock outs.
Higher holding costs make it less attractive for suppliers to maintain large inventories, leading them to operate with leaner stock levels. This can cause delays and shortages if demand unexpectedly increases or if there are disruptions in the supply chain. References:

* Inventory Management and Production Planning and Scheduling by Edward A. Silver, David F. Pyke, and Rein Peterson.

NEW QUESTION # 316
A manufacturing company has numerous sites around the country. Supply management teams at each location do not have the same understanding of the different Internal processes. Which of the following should senior supply management do in order to correct this problem?

A. Contact supply managers at each site to implement disciplinary actions against buyers deviating from the process
B. Contact suppliers to explain the processes and ask them not to collaborate with non-complying employees
C. Establish, communicate and reinforce a supply chain map
D. Centralize the purchasing activities at the firm's headquarters

Answer: C

Explanation:
To ensure a consistent understanding of internal processes across all sites, senior supply management should establish, communicate, and reinforce a supply chain map. A supply chain map visually represents the flow of materials, information, and finances throughout the supply chain. By standardizing this information and ensuring it is communicated effectively, all team members can have a clear and consistent understanding of the processes. This helps to align activities, improve coordination, and ensure compliance with standardized procedures.
