3. How should Obermeyer management think (both short-term and long-term) about sourcing in Hong Kong versus China? Long Term From a quality standpoint‚ production in Hong Kong would be ideal considering the repair rate in China is five to ten times greater than it is in Hong Kong.

Sport Obermeyer case (Venugopal Vinjamuri and Kailash Kothari) In order to determine the quantity of each product that should be purchased at the outset so as to fill half of the total forecasted volume (10‚000 units)‚ we need to calculate the purchase price per product (something that isn’t provided in the case) and also the salvage price per product.

International Managerial Accounting ACC202 The recommendation that I would make to Wally Wizard would be as follows: I would recommend to not outsource the production of the Global Positioning System navigator (GPSN).

forecasting. Sport Obermeyer‚ Ltd is in the business of manufacturing skiwear which includes short life cycle items due to their short selling season and dependence on trends in fashion. Each year Sport Obermeyer is challenged with matching supply to demand because production must be forecasted more than one year ahead of the expected selling season.
