The department should be open to receive 760 tires with a total retail value of $51,307.60.
Data and Calculations:
Beginning inventory = 90
New order of tires = 340
Total units available = 430 (90 + 340)
Sales of tires per week = 120
Expected ending inventory = 40
Therefore, the number of tires the department should be open to receive is 760 (40 + (120 x 6).
Cost per tire = $43
Markup = 57%
Retail price per tire = $67.51 ($43 x 1.57)
Thus, the total retail value of the 760 tires being ordered is $51,307.60.
