e) T33

Respuesta :

Answer:

c) U44

Explanation:

The computation is shown below:

A                                                 B           (A × B)     (dollar value ÷ total dollar value)

Unit Cost              SKU             Annual     Dollar    Dollar

                                                Demand    value     Percentage

$25                        R11              125           $3,125       2.1

$90                        S22            55            $4,950      3.3

$500                     T33            100            $50,000   33.65

$550                     U44            150            $82,500   55.53

$4                          V55            2000       $8,000     5.38

                                                                $148,575   100

As we can see from the above calculation, the u$4 has tighest control as it shows the high dollar percentage if we compared with others

hence, the correct option is c.
