Seasonal Inventory Decisions (Single-Period Inventory Models)

<p>One of the dilemmas facing many retailers is how to handle seasonal goods, such as sarung dress or batik dress, biscuits and syrups during Idul Fitri celebration. Often they cannot be sold at full markup next year because of changes in styles, and expiry dates for foods and beverages. Furthermore, the lead time can be longer than the selling season, allowing no second chance to rush through another order to cover unexpectedly high demand. At the end of the period the product has either sold out or there is a surplus of unsold items to sell for a salvage value. The single-period inventory models are used in situations involving seasonal or perishable items that cannot be carried in inventory and sold in future periods.<br />This type of situation is often called the newsboy problem. If the newspaper seller does not buy enough newspapers to resell on the street corner, sales opportunities are lost. If the seller buys too many newspapers, the overage cannot be sold because nobody wants yesterday’s newspaper.<br />At this opportunity, we will use the single-period inventory models decisions to create an optimal order quantity decision with the highest expected payoff. We will be able to use this decision process for all such items over many selling seasons to maximize profits.<br />However, it is not a foolproof, and it can result in an occasional bad outcome. It will depend on the situation, if the probability of demand follows the demand probability planning, then you will be able to get the best decision to prepare and execute an order.<br />Kata kunci:<br />Seasonal Inventory, Single-Period Inventory Models, Probability of Demand.</p>

Examining the shifting patterns of poaching from a long-term law enforcement intervention in Sumatra

Current levels of illegal wildlife trade for many in-demand species are unsustainable and place them at a heightened risk of extinction. While several Asian protected areas standout for their remarkable successes in tackling poaching, the threat continues nonetheless. We analyse a decade of law enforcement data from a Sumatran protected area to investigate tiger and prey poaching trends, the arrests and subsequent prosecution of those involved. Some 3882 snare traps were destroyed, but a recent spike in tiger poaching revealed that twice the number of snares were annually encountered in 2013 and 2014 than the eight preceding years. We detected a change in the techniques employed for poaching tigers from 2011 onwards, with more frequent encounters of snare trap clusters that contained six or more tiger traps set in a single location. Comparing monthly patterns of poaching within years revealed an increase in deer, but not tiger, poaching during the month of Ramadan. This result confirmed long-held views by the ranger teams that local demand for meat increases in the build up to Idul Fitri, a main Islamic holiday. Finally, from 24 law enforcement operations conducted, 40 tiger poachers/traders were arrested with >90% being prosecuted. However, the fines and prison sentences issued were much lower than the maximum available, and the highest sentence was for firearms possession and not illegal activities towards wildlife. Our site-based study demonstrates what can be achieved, but also identifies areas for strengthening the sub-national and national law enforcement response to an escalating tiger poaching trend.

TINJAUAN HUKUM ISLAM TERHADAP PENUKARAN UANG BARU MENJELANG HARI RAYA IDUL FITRI

In Islam, money is not regarded as a commodity that can be traded as in the conventional economic system. Its utilization is limited as a medium of exchange and a measure of value. If a money in the same kind will be exchanged, the payment must be balanced and cash. The violation of these regulations resultsin the ‘fadl’ usury (Riba Fadl). This research was conducted on the basis of a fatwa Indonesian Ulema Council (MUI) Jombang East Java, which establishes the prohibition of new money exchange transactions before Idul Fitri for the indication of usury. While on the other hand, the practice is more wide spread and becomes a part of the wheels of the economy of Islamic society every Idul Fitri. The results of research show that consideration of Islamic law should be able to participate in shaping the public life and has the sensitivity to goodness (sense of maslahah). The author concludes that the practice of a new money exchange is allowed. As to the difference of exchanged money does not include the fadl usury, but it becomes wages (ujroh) which must be received by the provider of service as an income when waiting to exchange money in the bank.Keywords: Money, Usuary, Wages, Maslahah

Food is the needs of primary must be fulfilled and cannot be influenced by the state of economy in indonesia. One of the famous traditional food business in Ponorogo is Jenang Mirah, industry is located in the village Josari, Jetis sub-district, district Ponorogo, East Java province.

Masks of Sumatra

In this article I focus on the performance practices of one of Sumatra’s little-known mask varieties, that of sakura theatre, performed in the southernmost province of Lampung. I also draw attention to four other Sumatran mask types, namely, those used in funeral ceremonies of the Karo Batak in North Sumatra, mak yong theatre of Bintan, gobang ritual of the Anambas islands, and mendu theatre of Natuna. In order to gain a greater understanding of the Sumatran mask images and to illuminate their use in performance, I first trace the history of Sumatran mask design, sourcing relevant iconographical and archeological data dating back to the migrations to the island in the Dongson era (500–1000 bce ) and the subsequent Hindu-Buddhist period (first to fourteenth centuries ce ). The masks’ facial features and their functions in Lampung personify animals, gods, demons, and humans and resemble carvings of supernatural beings on Buddhist temple remains throughout Sumatra. The ancestors are believed to have traveled along South Sumatra’s and Lampung’s extensive river system to Skala Brak in West Lampung along the southwestern Bukit Barisan mountain range, bringing with them their cultures and artistic skills. Moreover, the later interethnic contact between southern Sumatrans and the Benanek Dayak community in Kalimantan may have influenced the designs of the masks, given the similarities between them in the two areas. Today Lampung sakura masking in its various forms, dating back to the pre–Hindu-Buddhist period in Skala Brak, takes place in mystical healing and village cleansing ceremonies, at pole-climbing festivals, and in street processions on the Muslim feast day of Idul Fitri. As an indirect means of affecting the people’s mindset, sakura processional performance practices and their allure affirm the Lampung worldview.
