The answer is C: A-items.

Explanation:

A-items are typically high-value items with a significant impact on overall inventory costs. They are often managed using a continuous review system because:

  • High Value: A-items represent a large portion of the inventory value, so maintaining optimal stock levels is crucial.
  • Frequent Monitoring: Continuous review allows for real-time monitoring and quick response to changes in demand or supply.
  • Cost Efficiency: Ensures that stockouts or overstock situations are minimized, which is important for high-value items.

Incorrect Options:

A. C-items: These are low-value items and are usually managed with a periodic review system due to their lower impact on overall costs.

B. B-items: These are mid-value items and might be managed with either system, but they are less critical than A-items.

In summary, A-items are best suited for a continuous review system due to their high value and the need for precise inventory control.

La energía es la capacidad que tiene la materia de producir trabajo en forma de movimiento, luz, calor, etc. Es una cantidad física escalar y se puede presentar de muchas formas. Entre los distintos tipos de energía se destacan la atómica o nuclear, la hidráulica, la química, la eléctrica, la radiante, la eólica, la mecánica cinética y potencial, la geotérmica y la térmica. Cuando encendemos un vehículo automotor, la gasolina o la mezcla de hidrocarburos que emplea como combustible es sometido a un ciclo de combustiones y detonaciones controladas que genera la energía que, a su vez, permite el movimiento. Este combustible contiene dicha energía en las moléculas de hidrocarburos que durante las reacciones se transforman en otros compuestos y liberan energía. El octano es uno de los hidrocarburos que componen la gasolina: 2 C8H18 + 25 O2 -> 16 CO2 + 18 H2O + Energía ¿A qué tipo de energía pertenece el ejemplo anteriormente mencionado? a. Energía eléctrica b. Energía eólica c. Energía química d. Energía radiante
