Análise de custos associados a políticas de estoques

Because of the constant increasing global competition, companies increasingly need to develop new competitive advantages and in this context a good logistics system can be both an opportunity for cost reduction and a differential on the client. The system starts at its base, which is formed by the inventory policies. These policies were created to address the strategic issues such as: How much to keep in inventory? How often placing orders? What is the optimal order size? This paper presents a model applied to a real situation of the industry in order to demonstrate the impacts of these policies on costs, as well as a literature review of existing literature related to the subject, for the construction limits and conditions of the model. By applying these concepts the model has been formatted and applied to three different policies, providing a simulation of the results. Finally a comparison is made between the three policies shown and the policy that bests fits the companies’ requirements is indicated

Controle de armas: um estudo comparativo de políticas públicas entre Grã-Bretanha, EUA, Canadá, Austrália e Brasil

Esta dissertação tem por objetivo prover uma visão das Políticas Públicas de Controle de Armas em Mãos de Civis na Grã-Bretanha, Estados Unidos, Canadá, Austrália e Brasil. Apresenta-se o debate que divide os especialistas acerca da necessidade e eficácia do controle de armas para o controle da violência. Descreve-se a evolução e atual forma de controle dos países que têm como principal dificuldade o estoque e mercado ilegal de armas e a resistência ao aumento do controle das armas legais pelo chamado "lobby das armas". Apesar da resistência o controle vem sendo movido a frente devido às freqüentes tragédias coletivas e pelo peso dos problemas diários de violência com as armas de fogo que preocupam as sociedades, pressionam os governos e vêm fortalecendo o movimento pró-controle.
