Show Suggested Answer

Suggested Answer: D

In management accounting, reorder level (or reorder point) is the inventory level at which a com-pany would place a new order or start a new manufacturing run.

Reorder level depends on a company's work-order lead time and its demand during that time and whether the company maintain a safety stock.

If a company maintains a safety stock, reorder level calculation changes are follows:

Reorder Level = Average Demand Lead Time + Safety Stock

Kanban? More like Kan-banned, am I right? Seriously though, this question is a real head-scratcher. I'll have to channel my inner anime protagonist to figure this one out.

A) Muda? Really? That sounds more like a Yiddish word for 'nonsense' than a Japanese term for a billboard. I'm going with D) Kanban on this one.

Hmm, I'm torn between B) Kaizen and D) Kanban. They both sound like they could be related to signage in some way. Guess I'll have to review my notes on Japanese management practices.

I'm not familiar with these Japanese terms, but Kanban sounds like it could be the right answer. I'll have to do some research on these lean manufacturing concepts.
