Case study: Designing the Production Network at Coolwipes Question 1 What is the annual cost of serving the entire nation from Chicago? Based on the calculation below, the total cost to serve Chicago is $32,661.40.

Question 2 Do you recommend adding any plant(s)? Is so, where should the plant(s) be built and what lines should be included? Assume that the Chicago plant will be maintained at its current capacity but could be run at lower utilization. Would your decision be different if transportation costs are half of their current value? What if they were double their current value? There was reduction of total cost to $29,188.80. Based on this reduction would like to recommend on building a plant at Princeton, Atlanta and LA. All of this plant can offer both the Wipes and Ointment product line. The calculation is shown below :

The recommendation would remain the same to build all the additional plants, but with different production quantities if the transportation costs were half their current amount as the resulting total cost would now be $16,947. 88 as calculated below:

If transportation costs were double their current levels, the recommendation would be to stay with the Chicago facility servicing the entire nation as the total costs would rise to $86,530.20.

Question 3 As calculated below in the three spreadsheets, the recommendations would be exactly as above for current costs, transportation costs at half their current level and with transportation costs at double their current costs. The only difference in the recommendations would involve the production quantities at each facility.
