(30 points)Passage OneTransportation has taken a great role in many logistics systems for two reasons. First of all, globalization and importing-exporting activities make most products necessary to be transferred from one country to another. Secondly, information revolution has propelled the manufacturing process and consumer behaviors to be changed drastically. Traditional transportation methods need to be upgraded to accommodate modern transportation demand; therefore, containerization and usage of information sharing system emerge.Nowadays, most logistic transportation companies ar e familiar with the idea of “mission statement” as an expression of setting a vision for the business. The mission statement seeks to define the purpose of the business, its boundaries and its aspirations. It is now common for organizations to have such statement for the business as a whole and for key constituent components. What some companies have found is that there can be significant benefits to define the logistics vision of the firm.The purpose of the logistics vision statement is to give a clear indication that business intends to build a position of advantage through closer customer relationship. Such statement is never easy to construct. There is always the danger that they will publish the energetic and encouraging declaration that gives everyone a warm feeling but provides no guideline for action.Ideally, the logistics vision should be built around the simple issue of “How do we intend to use logistics and supply chain management to create value for our customers?” To realize this idea will necessitate a detailed understanding of how customer value is created and delivered in the market in which the business competes. Value chain analysis will be a fundamental element in this investigation as will the definition of the core competencies and capabilities of the organization. Asking the question “What activities do we excel in?” and “What is it that differentiates us from our competitors?” is the starting point for creating the logistics vision statement.Earlier, it was suggested that t he three words “Better, Faster, Cheaper” summarizes the ways in which logistics vision statement can provide value for customers. The criterion for good logistics vision statement is that it should provide the road map for how these three goals are to be achieved.( B ) 56. What does mission statement intend to do?A. To please management.B. To define, summarize and achieve a common goal.C. To achieve higher market share and profitability.D. To develop new market.(A ) 57. What kind of goals can mission statement fail to achieve?A. Providing realistic guidelines to guide the actions to achieve results.B. Designing a goal that everyone agrees.C. Pointing out a good goal.D. Implementing effectively.( C ) 58. Which element should a logistics mission statement focus on?A. Transportation.B. Costs.C. Customers.D. Punctuality.( D ) 59. How should a logistics vision statement add value to its customers?A. To provide cheaper services.B. To provide more choices for transportations.C. To communicate better with customers.D. To provide better, more cost-effective and punctual services.( D ) 60. What should a logistics mission statement provide?A. Management encouragement.B. A design of new methods to apply to customer satisfaction.C. Some detailed actions to undertake to obtain more market share.D. An outline of actions for goals to be achieved.Passage TwoEvery product on the market has a variety of costs built into it before it is ever put up for sale to a customer. There are costs of production, transportation, storage, advertising and more. Each of these coasts must bring in some profit at each stage, e.g. truckers must profit from transporting products, or they would not be in business. Thus, costs also include several layers of profits. The selling price itself consists of a markup(提价幅度) over the total of all costs, and it is normally based on a percentage of the total cost.The markup may be quite high—90 percent of cost, or it may be low. Grocery item in a supermarket usually have a low markup, while mink costs have a very high one. High markups, however, do not in themselves guarantee big profits. But if a cereal has an 8 percent markup and sells very well, there are reasonable profits.While most pricing is based on cost factors, there are some exceptions. Prestige pricing means setting prices artificially high in order to attract select clientele(客户). Such pricing attempts to suggest that the quality or style of the product is exceptional or that the item can not be found elsewhere. Stores can use prestige pricing to attract wealthy shoppers.Leader pricing and bait pricing are the opposites of prestige pricing. Leader pricing means setting low prices on certain items to get people to come into the stores. The products so make from other products people buy while in the store. Bait pricing, now generally considered illegal, means setting artificially low prices to attract customers. The store, however, persuade them of the inferiority of the low-priced item. Then a higher-priced item is presented as a better alternative.A common retail tactic is odd-priced products. For some products of $ 300, the store will set the price at $ 295 or $ 299.5 to give the appearance of lower price. Automobiles and other high-priced products are usually priced in this manner. For some reason $ 7 995 has more appeal to a potential car customer than $ 8 000.Bid pricing is a special kind of price setting. It is often used in the awarding of government contracts. Several companies are asked to submit bids on a job, and normally the lowest bidder wins. A school system may want to buy a large number of computers. Several companies are asked to submit prices, and the school district will decide on the best bid based as well on considerations of quality and service.( A ) 61. We learn form the para.2 that ______.A. lower markup brings reasonable profitsB. profits depend on how fast goods are movingC. fair price markup generate the biggest profitsD. reducing cost is the surest way to increase profit( A ) 62. What is the purpose of showing clients bait-priced items in the department store？A. To get them to purchase some other articles.B. To earn more money from these items.C. To persuade them to buy these items at a low price.D. To show the nice quality of these items.( A ) 63. Odd-even pricing method ______.A. is often used with very expensive articlesB. is only effective on potential car buyersC. is the most efficient way of selling low-priced goodsD. is not as popular as the bait pricing( C ) 64. In a bidding deal, ______.A. the government selects the best itemsB. the government transacts with an individualC. the sellers compete with each other for the bidD. the buyer compete with each other for the bid( D ) 65. Which markup is based on the total cost involved?A. Prestige pricingB. Bait pricingC. Leader pricingD. None of the abovePassage TreeStandard TPL services contain some easy customized types of operations. The rationale behind routine services is economies of scale and scope. An example of a standard service is transportation with a terminal service such as sorting products out by customer needs. This requires closer operation and coordination with the TPL provider than does the relationships in the routine TPL services. A standard service also includes, for example, special transportation where products need to be cooled, heated or moved in tanker trucks.The channel used in standardized services is field service personnel. The service organization thus formed can be established as buying centers for standard logistics services. In the case of Alcatel USA, the logistics standard service buying center was established with co-operation among three transportation service providers covering international air and ocean, and domestic air and van lines. Alcatel sells 96×24×8 inch steel racks containing shelves for printed circuit cards and wire to top communication companies. Special arrangements are needed for crating and rigging. This cooperation resulted in 44 percent reductions in unit freight cost, and a reduction in international transit times from seven-ten days to two days. Another example is Federal Express, responsible for the distribution of products sold via internet supermarket . Electronic commerce provides new business opportunities for express transportation logistics providers. They have certain established standard products, health and beauty items, gifts and electronics. The relationship with Federal Express covers not only distribution of products, but also warehousing with automated operations. A third example is E-letter offered by Finland Post Ltd as a new standard type of service. Here, contract partners send “letters” electronically to Finland Post Ltd, which prints the “letters” near the customer location and sends them out to the receiver. This allows printing to be done near the customer, reducing transportation costs and transportation time.A66. In the example of terminal service, what is the main difference between the standard TPL services and the routine ones?A) Standard TPL services require closer cooperation and coordination of operation with theTPL provider than the routine TPL service.B) The routine TPL services require closer cooperation and coordination of operation with theTPL provider than the standard TPL service.C) Standard TPL services contain some easy customized types of operation.D) The routine service is more traditional compared with the standard TPL services.B67. What does the example of Alcatel USA show us?A) Special arrangements are necessary for selling products.B) The cooperation with transportation service providers can reduce some freight costs andtransit time.C) Standard TPL services are very useful in selling Alcatel products.D) Transportation plays an important role in transaction.A68. What is the rationale behind routine services?A) Economies of scale and scopeB) Economies of time and costC) Development of scale and scopeD) Development of time and costD69. The example of Federal Express, which one of the following is not right?A) A net grocerB) Responsible for the distribution of products sold via Internet supermarketC) Provides new business opportunities for express transportation logisticsD) Provides more competitive priceA70. How does Finland Post Ltd save time and cost?A) Print the “letters” near the customer location and send them out to the receiverB) Do easy customized types of operationsC) Sort products out by customer needsD) By coordination of operation of operations with the TPL providerVI.

(30 points)Passage OneOne of the advantages of using 3PL results from economies of scale (merits from large truck fleets, warehouses, etc.) and economies of scope, which encourage companies to increase net value by reducing costs. The effects of these economies are obtained depending on the type of 3PL provider (e.g. IT-equipped, marketing-based, non-asset-based (and then flexible), etc.) Competent 3PL providers possess high coordination ability, enabling them to search for reliable partners or sub-contractors, and to manage efficiently the inter-firm flow of goods. Such ability can be developed through experiences as a 3PL.Likewise, by outsourcing logistics activities, companies can save on capital investments, and thus reduce financial risks. Investment in logistics assets, such as physical distribution centers or information networks, usually needs large and lump sum costs, which involves financial risks. Furthermore, the 3PL providers can spread the risks by outsourcing to sub-contractors.Although there are several advantages of using 3PL, some drawbacks also exist. It is not easy to establish a reliable and cost-effective partnership between the firm and the 3PL provider. In order to establish reliable partnership, efforts should be made in two stages: 3PL provider selection and contract signing. Firstly, in the stage of selecting a new 3PL partner, it is important to select the 3PL provider who has the ability to provide better services. If the firms cannot select reliable 3PL providers, they may suffer from economic losses. It is not easy for firms to judge the ability of the 3PL provider during the selection stage owing to the issue of information asymmetry (不对称) between the firm (principal) and the 3PL provider (agent). To solve this problem, complex selection procedures are necessary to identify their ability. However, the complex selectionprocedures may involve additional transaction costs. Secondly, it is important to establish a system to maintain their reliable partnership once the 3PL partner is selected. Information sharing and apparent risk sharing between the parties is always required. Concerning information sharing, it is needless to say that smoother information exchange will result in a more efficient logistics activity.( ) 56.What does the underlined phrase（line 3, para 2）mean?A. Total sumB. Large sumC. Small sumD. Separated sum( ) 57. Which one of the following is not true?A. Complex selection procedures are necessary to identi fy the clients’ ability and theymay involve additional costs.B. By outsourcing logistics activities, TPL providers can save on capital investments,and thus reduce their financial risks.C. 3PL providers can spread the risks by outsourcing to sub-contractors.D. Information sharing and apparent risk sharing between the parties is always requiredand smoother information exchange will result in a more efficiency.( ) 58. Which one of the following is not true about coordination ability?A. It can be developed through experiencesB. Enable 3PL companies to search for reliable partners or sub-contractorsC. Manage efficiently the inter-firm flow of goodsD. Companies can save on capital investments( ) 59. Complex selection procedures are necessary to identify their ability, because .A. There is information asymmetryB. It is not easy for firms to judge the ability of the 3PL providerC. Otherwise firms may suffer from economic lossesD. The 3PL provider who has the ability to provide better services( ) 60. What is not needed to maintain their reliable partnership?A. Information sharingB. Profit sharing mechanismC. Apparent risk sharingD. Smoother information exchangePassage TwoThe first task of site selection is to identify both the general and then the specific warehouse location. The general area concerns the broad geography where an active warehouse makes sense from a service, economic, and strategic perspective. The general question focuses on the broader geographic area as illustrated by the need to place a warehouse in the Midwest, which generally implies having a facility in Illinois, Indiana, or Wisconsin. In contrast, a retailer such as Target or Home Depot typically selects a warehouse location that is central to a prerequisite number of retail store locations. Thus, the selection and number of retail outlets drive the support warehouse location.Once the general warehouse location is determined, a specific building site must be identified. Typical areas in a community for locating warehouses are commercial developments and outlying or suburban areas. The factors driving site selection are service availability and cost. Land cost is the most important factor. A warehouse need not be located in a major industrial area. In many cities, warehouses are among industrial plants and in areas zoned for light or heavy industry. Most warehouses can operate legally under the restrictions placed upon general commercial property.Beyond procurement cost, setup, and operating expenses such as transport access, utility hookups, taxes, and insurance rates require evaluation. The cost of essential services may vary extensively between sites. For example, a food-distribution firm recently rejected what otherwise appeared to be a totally satisfactory warehouse site because of projected insurance rates. The site was located near the end of a water main. During most of the day, adequate water pressure was available to handle operational and emergency requirements. However, a water problem was possible during two short periods each day. For 6:30 A.M. to 8:30 A.M. and from 5:00 P.M. to 7:00 P.M. the overall demand for water along the line was so great that a sufficient pressure was not available to handle emergencies. Because of this deficiency, abnormally high insurance rates were required and the site was rejected.Several other requirements must be satisfied before a site is purchased. The site must offer adequate room for expansion. Necessary utilities must be available. The soil must be capable ofsupporting the structure. The site must be sufficiently high to afford proper water drainage. Additional requirements may be situationally necessary, depending upon the structure to be constructed. For these reasons and others, the final selection of the site should be preceded by extensive analysis.( ) 61. What is the core factor for a retailer such as Target or Home Depot when typically selecting a warehouse location to consider? ______A. the broad geography of a warehouseB. both the general and then the specific warehouse locationC. the service, economic, and strategic perspectiveD. the number of retail outlets locations( ) 62.. Which of the followings is not an ideal building site selection for a warehouse?A. a major industrial area with great expansion where numerous industrial plants arelocatedB. commercial developmentsC. commercial centersD. zones from light and heavy industries( ) 63. The “commercial developments” in Para. 2 are usually located in ______ areas.A. remote countrysideB. downtownC. industrialD. outlying or suburban( ) 64. To evaluate factors of site selection, the most crucial element taken into consideration is _______.A. transport accessB. taxes and insurance ratesC. land costD. utility hookups( ) 65. The main reason that accounts for the rejection of a seemingly satisfactory warehouse site is _______.A. a water problem was possible during two short periods each dayB. the abnormally high insurance rates were requiredC. the site was located near the end of a water mainD. the overall demand for water along the line during two short periods may bring aboutemergenciesPassage threeThere are three types of stock that a business can hold:1.Stocks of raw materials (inputs brought from suppliers waiting to be used in theproduction process)2.Work in progress (incomplete products still in the process of being made)3.Stocks of finished products (finished goods of acceptable quality waiting to be soldto customers)The aim of stock control is to minimize the cost of holding these stocks whilst ensuring that there are enough materials for production to continue and be able to meet customer demand. Obtaining the correct balance is not easy and the stock control department will work closely with the purchasing and marketing departments.The marketing department should be able to provide sales forecasts for the coming weeks or months (this can be difficult if demand is seasonal or prone to unexpected fluctuation) and so allow stock control managers to judge the type, quantity and timing of stocks needed.It is the purchasing department’s responsibility to order the correct quantity and quality of these inputs, at a competitive price and from a reliable supplier who will deliver on time.As it is difficult to ensure that a business has exactly the correct amount of stock at any one time, the majority of firms will hold buffer stock. This is the “safe” amount of stock that needs to be held to cover unforeseen rises in demand or problems of reordering supplies.Good stock management by a firm will lower costs, improve efficiency and ensure production can meet fluctuations in customer demand. It will give the firm a competitive advantage as more efficient production can feed through to lower prices and also customers should always be satisfied as products will be available on demand.However, poor stock control can lead to problems associated with overstocking or stock-outs.If a business holds too much buffer stock (stock held in reserve) or overestimates the level of demand for its products, then it will overstock. Overstocking increase costs for businesses asholding stocks are an expense for firms for several reasons.1.Increases warehouse space needed2.Higher insurance costs needed3.Higher security costs needed to prevent theft4.Stocks may be damaged, become obsolete or perish (go out of date)5.Money spent buying the stocks could have been better spent elsewhereThe opposite of an overstock is a stock-out. This occurs when a businesses runs out of stocks. This can have severe consequences for the business:1.Loss of production (with workers still having to be paid but no products beingproduced)2.Potential loss of sales or missed orders. This can harm the reputation of thebusiness.In these circumstances a business may choose to increase the amount of stock they hold in reserve (buffer stock). There are advantages and disadvantages of increasing the stock level.( ) 66. The aim of stock control is _______.A. to minimize the cost of holding stocks and ensure productionB. to order the correct quantity and quality of stocksC. to provide sales forecasts for the coming weeks or monthsD. to judge the type, quantity and timing of stocks needed( ) 67. The word “buffer” in Line 19 probably means ________.A. protectionB. quantityC. reserveD. insurance( ) 68. The costs of overstocking include the following EXCEPT ___________.A. Increases warehouse space and higher insurance costs needed.B. Potential loss of sales or missed orders.C. Higher security costs needed to prevent theft.D. Stocks may be damaged, become obsolete or perish.( ) 69. Which of the following is one of the advantages of increasing the stock level?A. Costs of storage, rent and insuranceB. Less chance of loss of production time because of stock-outsC. Money tied up in stocks not being used elsewhere in the businessD. Large stocks subject to deterioration and theft( ) 70. Which of the following is not discussed in the passage?A. The types of stocks.B. The purpose of stock control.C. The importance of stock controlD. The methods of stock controlVI.
