CIPS L3M2 Exam - Topic 1 Question 8 Discussion

Posted by Andrew on Apr 25, 2024 at 09:21 AM

The letters 'EOQ' refer to:

Suggested Answer: C

The Economic Order Quantity is a formula which attempts to calculate the most efficient quantity to order at any given time, by attempting to reconcile the cost of stockholding and the cost of plac-ing an order. This could then have implications for the timing of an order being placed.

The cost of holding stock can be reasonably accurately calculated and agreed with one's peers. However, determining the cost of placing an order can keep colleagues up late into the night, and can be a great topic to liven up a sleepy procurement / finance function.

Okay, I've got this. 'EOQ' must refer to the 'economic order quantity' - the optimal amount to order to minimize inventory costs. I'm confident that's the right answer.

I think I know the answer to this one. The two methods are B and C - using xAPI to push a JSON panel configuration, and creating a panel using the device UI Extensions Editor.

Okay, I think I've got this. The key is understanding that Meraki devices are cloud-managed, so if they can't reach the cloud, their management functions will be interrupted, but the network should continue operating.
