III.Listen to the interview, and answer to the following questions:TapescriptProf. GARY GEREFFI: Wal-Mart, as an efficiency machine, has just done better than any other U.S. retailer, or perhaps any other U.S. company in history.HEDRICK SMITH: With other mass retail chains, like Target and K-Mart,Wal-Mart generated a revolution in how goods are produced, a shift from what's called "push production" to "pull production."Prof. EDNA BONACICH, U.C. Riverside: The push system involved manufacturers deciding what they're going to produce and then trying to get retailers to buy it and sell it for them. The pull system involves retailers deciding what is being sold, collecting information on what is being sold, and then telling manufacturers what to produce and when to produce it based on what is actually being sold.HEDRICK SMITH: Wal-Mart's pull is so powerful that here in Bentonville, manufacturers have set up satellite sales offices. In what's now known as Vendorville, I found a Who's Who of Wal-Mart vendors. In one corporate office park, I found a sock manufacturer, Kentucky Derby Hosiery. Its CEO is Bill Nichol.BILL NICHOL, CEO, Kentucky Derby Hosiery: Yes. If you want to sellWal-Mart, you know, you need to come to Bentonville. It's been that way for a long time. I don't see that that's going to change. So people who travel a lot found it maybe more convenient just to have an office here, that they were continuously coming to Bentonville, so a lot of them just moved here, or at least opened an office here. HEDRICK SMITH: The suppliers come in droves, hungry for big contracts. They get herded into little rooms for bargaining sessions with Wal-Mart buyers.BILL NICHOL: They force all of us, by really good business discipline, to be sure we're paying attention at all times to what their customers want to buy. It serves the purpose of saying, "This is what they want, and they want to buy it at this price." Therefore, that's what we'd better be doing, our little company.HEDRICK SMITH: The focus is on what matters most to Wal-Mart: prices.JON LEHMAN, Former Wal-Mart Store Manager: Well, it's very one-sided. There is no negotiation. There's not much negotiation at all. The manufacturer walks into the room. I've been in these little cubicles, I've seen it happen. The buyer says, "Look, we want you to sell it to us for 5 percent on a dollar – at cost – lower this year than you did last year."They know every fact and figure that these manufacturers have. They know their books. They know their costs. They know their business practices– everything, you know? So what's a manufacturer left to do? They sit naked in front of Wal-Mart. You know, Wal-Mart calls the shots. "If you want to do business with us, if you want tostay in business, then you're going to do it our way." And it's all about driving down the cost of goods.Prof. NELSON LICHTENSTEIN: The power of Wal-Mart is such, it's reversed a 100-year history in which the manufacturer was powerful and the retailer was sort of the vassal. It's changed that. It turned that around entirely. Now the retailer, the mass global retailer, is at the center. That's the power. And the manufacturer becomes the serf, the vassal, the underling who has to do the bidding of the retailer. That's a new thing.第2课I Phrases translation供应链战略supply chain strategy 多供应商战略many suppliers strategy 少数供应商战略few suppliers strategy 纵向整合战略vertical integration企业集团keiretsu networks 虚拟企业virtual company前向整合forward integration 后向整合backward integration 规模经济economy of scale成本降低cost reductionII Fill in the blank and put the sentence into Chinese1、demands, specifications, low bidder, supplier在多供应商战略中,各供应商对采购方的报价要求中的需求和规格做出回应,订单往往是为报价较低者所获得。

Listen to the conversation and answer the question or complete the sentencesTapescriptHEDRICK SMITH: As the world's largest company, Wal-Mart has tremendous power and influence. It is now the model not just for retailing but for companies all across the corporate landscape.Prof. NELSON LICHTENSTEIN, U.C. Santa Barbara: In the 19th century, it was the Pennsylvania Railroad, which called itself the standard of the world. Early 20th century, it might have been U.S. Steel. General Motors, of course, in the mid-20th century. But clearly, Wal-Mart today is setting a sort of a– a new standard that other firms have to follow if they hope to compete. And more than just other firms, it's setting standards for the nation as a whole.HEDRICK SMITH: By figuring out how to exploit two powerful forces that converged in the '90s, the rise of information technology and the explosion of the global economy, Wal-Mart has changed the balance of power in the world of business.Prof. GARY GEREFFI, Duke University: It used to be that manufacturers – big multi-national manufacturers – had the most power, companies like General Motors and General Electric. Today, I think that global retailers actually have become the most powerful companies in the global economy.HEDRICK SMITH: To understand Wal-Mart and how a company with such humble roots has managed to build a global empire, I headed for Bentonville, Arkansas. It's an overgrown crossroads town tucked into the Bible and barbecue belt of northwest Arkansas. Here, in the heart of the old town, sits the five-and-dime store that Sam Walton opened in 1950. A few blocks away I found the Wal-Mart of today, theWal-Mart we've come to know as consumers, a cornucopia of thousands of different items all under one roof, the epitome of one-stop shopping. Every week, Wal-Mart says, 100 million American shoppers stream into its 3,400 storesSHOPPER: It's very convenient for me to be able to get a one-stop shop. SHOPPER: I know I don't have to look and see where I can save the most money. I know when I come in here, I can save money.SHOPPER: Good prices, good quality of stuff.SHOPPER: I'm sort of thinking of having my Social Security check deposited directly to wal-Mart since I buy everything at Wal-Mart.BOB McADAM, VP, Wal-Mart Gov't Relations: What makes Wal-Mart successful, what keeps us motivated and what really challenges us every day, whether it was from the day one when Wal-Mart began or till today, I think it's the same, that we really strive in everything we do to keep our costs as low as possible, so that we can provide the customer a value and still make a reasonable profit for our company.HEDRICK SMITH: That was Sam Walton's formula: Buy cheap, sell for less than the other guy, and make your profit on high volume and fast turnover. Sounds simple, but this supercenter is a world away from Sam's five-and-dime. How do they keep track of it all? How do they know what to stock? How do they keep prices so low?第2课I Phrases translation物流成本logistics cost销售损失lost sale退货处理成本costs of return goods handling 潜在的销售potential future sale运输成本transportation cost进货渠道inbound channel出货渠道outbound channel订单处理成本order processing cost需求预测demanding forecasting销售沟通distribution communication 电子数据交换系统electronic data interchange 卫星数据传输satellite data transmission 条码bar coding内部成本internal cost外部成本external cost订单传输order transmittal订单输入order entry批量成本lot quantity cost缺货stockout库存持有成本inventory carry cost 资金成本capital cost仓储空间成本storage space cost 风险成本risk costII Fill in the blank and put the sentence into Chinese1、order fulfillment客户服务成本是指用来支持客户服务的费用,包括订单执行、零配件和服务支持成本。

墨菲物流学英文版第12版课后习题答案第12章

PART IIANSWERS TO END-OF-CHAPTER QUESTIONSCHAPTER 12: TRANSPORTATION12-1. Why is transportation important to a firm’s supply chain operations? Transportation influences, or is influenced by, many logistics activities such as the fact that transportation costs are directly affected by the location of plants, warehouses, vendors, retail locations, and customers. Inventory requirements are influenced by the mode of transport used and the transport mode influences the packaging required as well as the materials handling equipment. Customer service goals influence the type and quality of carrier and carrier service selected by the seller.12-2. Why is it important to know about the characteristics of a country’s transportation infrastructure?Because an increasing number of shipments is being transported between multiple countries, knowledge of a country’s infrastructure can help avert potential transportation problems. For example, some countries may have few airports with 10,000-foot runways, which might reduce the feasibility of moving shipments via air. As another example, data on rail gauge are important because nonuniform rail gauge within a country, or between neighboring countries, means that shipments moving by rail will need to be transferred from one vehicle to another, which adds to both delivery time and costs.12-3. Discuss the speed of airfreight transportation in terms of the line-haul and accessorial service.When one thinks of air transportation, one immediately thinks of speed, particularly on the line-haul (terminal-to-terminal movement of freight or passengers); modern jet aircraft are capable of traveling between 500 and 600 miles per hour. Because most shippers and consignees are not located at an airport, this requires transportation from the shipper to the airport as well as from the destination airport to the consignee (accessorial service); this accessorial service adds to overall transit time.12-4. Why is the reliability of airfreight transportation somewhat problematic?On the one hand, air’s tremendous speed relative to the other modes offers the opportunity to “make up lost time” that isn’t possible with the other modes. However, because so much airfreight is belly freight, the increasing congestion and resultant delays associated with air passenger transportation mean congestion and delays for airfreight. Moreover, weather conditions, such as fog, snow, and thunderstorms, can have an adverse effect on the reliability of airfreight transportation.12-5. How do truckload operations differ from less-than-truckload operations?Less-than-truckload (LTL) shipments range from about 150 to 10,000 pounds; truckload (TL) carriers focus on shipments of greater than 10,000 pounds, although the exact weight depends on the product. LTL shipments are often too big to handle manually and do not fill a truck, and LTL carriers transport shipments of many customers simultaneously. Whereas LTL shipments are routed through terminals, TL shipments tend to move directly from the shippe r’s location to the consignee’s location.12-6. How do speed limits and hours-of-service rules potentially affect motor carrier service?Several states mandate a two-tier speed limit policy in which the maximum speed for motor carriers is lower than for automotive vehicles, which potentially means longer transit times by truck. However, several states are in the process of eliminating the lower maximum speed limit of truckers, which could potentially increase motor carriers’ length of haul. Hours-of-service rules limit the number of hours that can be driven in a 24-hour period as well as the number of hours that can be driven in a one-week period.12-7. What are advantages and disadvantages to a pipeline’s lack of vehicles?The advantages include that there is no need for vehicle operators and that the likelihood of work stoppages by operating employees is small. The lack of vehicles also means that transportation is one way, and the lack of a backhaul reduces potential excess capacity issues. In addition, the pipeline’s lack of vehicles means that it is the most reliable form of transportation because there are no vehicle-related disruptions and pipelines are virtually unaffected by adverse weather conditions. However, the lack of vehicles means that the relevant product must be forced through the pipeline, which means that pipelines tend to be the slowest form of transportation.12-8. What are pipeline slurry systems? How do they function?Slurry systems allow bulk commodities to become liquefiable by grinding the solid material to a certain particle size, mixing it with a liquid to form a fluid muddy substance, pumping that substance through a pipeline, and then decanting the liquid and removing it, leaving the solid material. Although water is the liquid most commonly used in slurry systems, other liquids can be used.12-9. Discuss the drawbacks to rail transportation.There is a level of market concentration and domination in railroading that creates limited service and pricing options for potential customers. U.S. railroads have exhibited rather uneven reliability in recent years in part because of severe weather conditions that have destroyed and damaged many miles of track and caused significant transit time delays. Railroads present an interesting paradox in the sense that they a re not the “best” or “worst” on any of the attributes such as capability, capacity, cost, and so on. For example,railcars can carry much more weight than a truck trailer but much less weight than a barge.12-10. How do weather conditions influence the reliability of inland water carriers? Drought creates problems because when water levels drop below acceptable levels, barges are forced to reduce their loads or barge traffic might be halted altogether, situations that require alternative means of transportation. Icing closes bodies of water and prevents year-round operations. With flooding, there is too much water and while the disruptions from flooding tend to be shorter than those associated with drought, any disruption negatively impacts transportation reliability.12-11. Discuss the positive attributes of inland water transportation.Inland water transportation is relatively inexpensive to users, particularly when compared to rail and truck transportation. Moreover, many different kinds of products can be carried. Of the modes with vehicles, inland water transportation offers the greatest capacity (volume that can be carried at one time).12-12. How do containers help to facilitate intermodal transportation? Containers—large reusable steel boxes used for intermodal shipments—are moved by mechanical devices such as container cranes. Companies need only handle a container and not the freight inside of it, which provides a dramatic reduction in freight handling costs. Because the container is interchangeable among rail, truck, and water carriers, containers can be used in intermodal applications and provide the advantages offered by each of several modes.12-13. What are freight forwarders? How do they function? What services do they perform?Freight forwarders can best be thought of as consolidators of freight. They function by consolidating shipments from small shippers, buying transportation in volume rates, and then charging shippers a rate somewhere between the non-volume rate and the volume rate. The forwarder typically offers pickup and delivery services, but not line-haul service. In addition, forwarders can specialize in certain cargoes, such as garment forwarders and forwarders that specialize in animals.12-14. What is a shippers’ association?Shippers’ associations perform basically the sa me functions as surface and airfreight forwarders, except shippers’ associations do not operate as profit-making organizations. Although shippers’ associations tend to be thought of as providing a large number of transportation-related services for their members, some shippers’ associations are primarily focused on achieving the lowest rates and transportation costs for their members.12-15. Discuss the various options that are available to parcel shippers.Parcel shippers, which send packages weighing up to 150 pounds, have a variety of options such as Retail Ground, a service of the U.S. Postal Service. Retail Ground has definitive size (130 inches in combined length and girth) and weight limitations (approximately 70 pounds). United Parcel Service (UPS) and FedEx are also options for parcel shippers; their rates, unlike Retail Ground, include both pickup and delivery. The weight limitations for UPS and FedEx range from 70 to 150 pounds, depending on the type of service purchased. Package services are also available from Greyhound Lines, the primary intercity bus company in the United States, and packages are limited to a maximum weight of 100 pounds.12-16. List several environmental regulations and describe their impact on transportation. With respect to noise, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) is responsible for enforcing noise emissions from transportation equipment such as rail locomotives and truck tractors. In terms of air pollution, the EPA has mandated that heavy-duty truck engines must meet stringent emission standards. The EPA is also quite concerned with resource conservation, and improved fuel efficiency and reduced consumption of petroleum have become important issues for many transportation companies.12-17. Pick three modes of transportation, name the federal agency responsible for safety regulation for each of the modes you’ve picked, and provide a safety-related role or responsibility for each mode.•Air: Federal Aviation Administration; airspace and air traffic management.•Motor carriers: Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration; reduce crashes, injuries, and fatalities involving large trucks and buses.•Railroads: Federal Railroad Administration; safety inspectors investigate five distinct disciplines, such as hazardous materials, and operating practices, such asdrug and alcohol issues.•Pipelines: Office of Pipeline Safety; establish and enforce regulations with respect to pipeline design, construction, and operation.•Inland water: U.S. Coast Guard; safety, security, and stewardship of marine transportation.12-18. Define what is meant by economic regulation. Why is transportation economic deregulation important?Economic regulation in transportation refers to control over business practices and activities such as entry and exit, pricing, service, accounting and financial issues, and mergers and acquisitions. Economic deregulation of transportation is important because it allowed transportation companies much greater freedom with respect to pricing and service options—two attributes that facilitate the tailored logistics concept. In addition, the economic deregulation that occurred in the United States has spurred economicderegulation (sometimes called liberalization) in many other countries, and this movement has been particularly noticeable with respect to air transportation.12-19. How does a common carrier differ from a contract carrier?A common carrier has agreed to serve the general public by assuming four specific obligations: to serve, to deliver, to charge reasonable rates, and to avoid discrimination in pricing and service. A contract carrier offers a specialized service to customers on a contractual basis; the contract specifies the compensation to be received, the services to be provided, and the type of equipment to be used, among others. Unlike the common carrier, the contract carrier is under no obligation to render services to the general public and only has to serve customers with whom it has contracts.12-20. Discuss advantages and disadvantages to private transportation.One advantage to private transportation is that the equipment can serve as a rolling billboard that allows an organization to promote itself. Operational control is another advantage to private transportation, in part because shipments can move at a time convenient to the company, as opposed to a time that might be convenient for a carrier. Private transportation can also provide important competitive advantages to an organization; private truck fleets allow organizations to better serve key customers relative to the performance of for-hire carriers.A key disadvantage is that private transportation can be quite costly, in part because of the capital expenditures that are necessary to own or lease the relevant vehicles. Moreover, managerial costs are often ignored or underestimated; many private fleets require at least one full-time employee to manage the various responsibilities such as vehicle selection, vehicle maintenance, and so on.PART IIICASE SOLUTIONSCASE 12-1: HDT TRUCK COMPANYQuestion 1: Assume you are Vanderpool. Draft the comparison Pon just requested. Many students will calculate transportation costs. For the movement via Chicago, they will choose to use rail. The following tables show the comparison.Question 2: Which of the two routing alternatives would you recommend? Why?In terms of transportation costs only, the chartered vessel is cheaper. However, when taking into account cash flows and the value of money, the Baltimore route becomes advantageous. Assume we use the charter vessel. It should arrive on May 30 and HDT will be paid. However, if trucks are sent two at a time via Baltimore, the middle pair (#25 and #26) should be finished on about April 16 and arrive at Doha about May 8, when they will be paid—in other words, 22 days earlier than if they arrived on May 30 on the chartered vessel. HDT pays 8% per year for its money. The following shows how to calculate the savings for truck #25 or #26:($172,000 x .08 x 22) / 365 = $829.37Multiplying $829.37 x 50 yields $41,468.50. When added to the costs of using Chicago ($109,470), the total cost now becomes $150,938.50—which is more expensive than using Baltimore.Question 3: Assume that the buyer in Saudi Arabia has made other large purchases in the United States and is considering consolidating all of its purchases and loading them onto one large ship, which the buyer will charter. The buyer contacts HDT and, although acknowledging its commitment to buy FAS Doha, asks how much HDT would subtract from the $172,000 per truck price if the selling terms were changed to FOB HDT’s Crown Point plant. How much of a cost reduction do you think HDT should offer the buyer? Under what terms and conditions?All the transportation costs, calculated above, could be subtracted. The revised terms of sale should also specify dates when cargo would be picked up and paid for, and the price should include HDT’s daily costs in invest ment in finished inventory.Question 4: Answer Question 3 with regard to changing the terms of sale to delivery at port in Baltimore. The buyer would unload the trucks from the railcars.The answer for Question 3 holds here as well. Note that HDT still has responsibility for getting the trucks to Baltimore on railroad flatcars, although the buyer would be responsible for unloading the railcars.Question 5: Is there an interest rate that would make HDT change from one routing to another? If so, what is it?Let i equal the rate of interest. Refer to answers to Questions 1 and 2.The relevant equation is: $109,470 + (8,600,000 x 22 / 365i) = $137,500.Solving for i yields an approximate value of .053.Substituting .053 into the left side of the relevant equation (i.e., shipping via Chicago) above yields a value of $109,470 + $27,473, which comes to slightly less than$137,000—thus, less than the costs via Baltimore.Question 6: Assume that the cost to HDT of borrowing money is 12 percent per year. Because the buyer will pay for trucks as they are delivered, would it be advantageous for HDT to pay overtime to speed up production, ship the trucks as they are finished via the Port of Baltimore, and collect its payment earlier? Why or why not?The selling price of each truck is still $172,000. Each day that HDT must wait for payment costs [(.12 x $172,000) divided by 365], or $56.55 per day. They should pay overtime only if it costs less than this amount.。

They can be classified into the following categories in accordance with different criteria.(1) In terms of whether or not the goods are on boardShipped B/L (or On Board B/L) is issued by the carrier or its agent when all the goods are loaded on board the ship, and must bear the name of the ship and the date of shipment.Received for Shipment B/L is issued by the carrier or its agent when the goods are under his control before loaded on board the ship. The importer does not favor it, and usually the L/C will require the exporter to present shipped B/L for negotiation at the bank. However, with the development of container transport, received for shipment Bs/L are being increasingly applied.(2) On the basis of the apparent condition of goods notedW hen the shipping company writes on the B/L “The goods loaded are in apparent good order”, this B/L is a Clean B/L or an Unclaused B/L.When the shipping line gives such an indication as “The goods loaded are not in apparent good order” or “The packing is broken or … is polluted, etc.”, this B/L is a n Unclean B/L or a foul B/L or a claused B/L, and non-negotiable at the bank.(3) In the light of different characteristics of consigneesStraight B/L has a specified name in the column of consignee, which means that the goods can only be received by the specified person and the B/L cannot be transferred to a third person.Order B/L does not have a specified name but the phraseology of “To orde r”, or “To the order of …” in the column of consignee. This kind of B/L can be transferred to others by endorsement, thus called negotiable B/L, and widely used in international trade.Open B/L has neither the consignee’s name nor the phraseology of “To order” fill in the column of consignee. This type of B/L is also called negotiable B/L, and can be negotiable without endorsement, and ownership of the goods passes when the B/L is handed over to anyone. Owing to the exceedingly high risk involved, this B/L is rarely used.(4) In accordance with modes of transportUnder Direct B/L, the goods will be directly carried to the port of destination without transshipment. Under Transshipment B/L, the goods will be transshipped in transit.Through B/L is a development of these two Bs/L. Under Through B/L, the goods will at least be carried by two different modes of transport as sea-land or land-sea and taken charge of by different carriers during transport before arriving at the port of destination. A multimodal transport operator responsible for the whole voyage issues Combined Transport B/L, involving two or more different kinds of transport. This kind of B/L is usually used in container transport and may be a Received for Shipment B/L, but a Through B/L must be a Clean Shipped B/L.(5) In conformity with the detailed or simplified clausesLong Form B/L has detailed clauses printed on its back concerning the transport of goods so as to solve any possible transport disputes, while short Form B/L does not have such clauses on its back.(6) In compliance with the types of vesselLiner B/L is issued by the carrier when the goods are shipped on a regular liner vessel with scheduled route and reserved berth at destination, while charter party B/L is issued by a charterer of a ship to the exporter.5. Straight B/L has a specified name in the column of consignee, which means that the goods can only be received by the specified person and the B/L cannot be transferred to a third person. So it is also called non-negotiable B/L, and thus it is not commonly used in international trade and normally applies to high-value shipments or goods for special purposes.V. Make out the B/L according to the L/C given below略第3课 TRANSPORT DOCUMENTS (3)I.

The air waybill is approximately equivalent to the sea freight B/L, but it is not a document of title to goods or a negotiable instrument in the same way as is an ocean B/Lbecause the cargo would arrive at the destination airport days or sometimes weeks before the air waybill’s arrival via the banking system. Therefore, the consignee is allowed to take delivery of the goods before receiving the air waybill.2. A multimodal transport document evidences the contract of carriage of goods by at least two modes of transport, such as shipping by rail and by sea, issued by a multimodal transport operator under a multimodal transport contract.3. The difference between an MTD and a through B/L is as follows: Through B/L used for ocean transport always covers sea transport together with any other modes of transport, but multimodal transport document(MTD) may be applied to any kind of combined transport,not necessary connected with sea transport. This document can be either negotiable or non-negotiable, and usually non-negotiable.4. The function of a dock receipt is used to transfer responsibility when the export goods is moved by the domestic carrier to the port of shipment and left with the international carrier for movement to its final destination.IV. Be familiar with each column of the transport documents given below 略。
