When a German couple noticed a man‘s head and shoulder sticking out of a glacier in the Austrian Alps recently, they made history. The frozen corpse was about five feet and scientists who helicoptered to the site determined that it was 4,000 years old – the
first body ever found from the Bronze Age. Mummified by the wind and snow, he came 13 with skin, bones, internal organs, and fingernails. He was 14 in leather shoes and finely stitched leather suit, insulated with hay. An array of weapons and equipment was found alongside him - a leather quiver with fourteen arrows, a stone necklace, a fire flint, a knife, and a ax with a crude bronze head.
―The find is of 16 scientific meaning,‖ said Konrad Spindler, professor of Early and Primeval History at the University of Innsbruck, who is investigating the 17 . Skeletal remains of buried corpses have been excavated before in Bronze Age graves. But ―the iceman,‖ as Austrian newspapers dubbed him, was going about the normal course of life when he died the ages of 20 and 40, which means he should yield a treasure-trove of information about conditions 4,000 years ago. Scientists plan to the contents of his stomach and intestine for clues to the Bronze Age diet, illnesses, and parasites. They also hoped to the glacier site further for companions.

Passage 2
My husband and I were traveling in Africa. And we were staying in a government guest house which was sort of like a small hotel, but it wasn't a very fancy place. Anyway it was a very hot night that night. It was a very hot climate and it was really hot that night. We wanted to have the windows open, but the problem was we had everything we owned right there in the room. The windows didn't have any screens or anything. So anybody could just come right in and steal our things. But if we shut the windows, it would be impossible to sleep. It was way over a hundred degrees Fahrenheit or forty degrees

So we decided to put a lot of pots and pans like that under the window. Then if a thief came in, the pots and pans would fall down and we would wake up. That's what we did. Anyway, we were asleep.
All of the sudden in the middle of the night, sure enough, I hear the pans crash. I sat up in bed. My heart was beating like anything. I could see that there was a man in a white robe standing up next to the bed. I tried to scream and I had laryngitis which means my voice wasn't working. And I was screaming in the local language for help. It was like 'help help', but I couldn't scream.
So the man came over and he shoved me down on the bed. Then he says in English "be quiet." Then I realized it was my husband, huh… And when I was able to speak, I asked, "What're you doing?" He said, "well, I had a headache and I wanted to get up and get some aspirins."

PART II
ANSWERS TO END-OF-CHAPTER QUESTIONS
CHAPTER 1: LOGISTICS AND THE SUPPLY CHAIN
1. Did it surprise you that logistics can be such an important component in a country’s economic system? Why or why not?
The answer to this question likely depends on a student’s prior exposure to
logistics. A ―typical‖ student in an undergraduate basic logistics course likely has had limited exposure to, and knowledge about, logistics and thus would likely be unaware as to logistics’ impact on a country’s economic system. As such, she/he might be pleasantly surprised to learn that logistics often accounts for at least 10% of a country’s GDP and also is important for economic growth and development.
2. Distinguish between possession, form, time, and place utility.
Possession utility refers to the value or usefulness that comes from a customer
being able to take possession of a product and can be influenced by the relevant payment terms. Form utility refers to a product’s being in a form that (1) can be used by the customer and (2) is of value to the customer. Place utility refers to
having products available where they are needed by customers, while time utility refers to having products available when they are needed by customers.
3. How does logistics contribute to time and place utility?
Logistics contributes to time utility by recognizing that different products have different sensitivities to time. For example, a three-day late delivery of bananas likely has more serious consequences than a three-day late delivery of a box of pencils. As for place utility, logistics facilitates products being moved from points of lesser value to points of greater value.
4. How can a particular logistics system be effective but not efficient?
Effectiveness can be thought of as ―how well a company does what they say
they’re going to do;‖ efficiency focuses on how well (or poorly) company
resources are used to achieve what a company promises they can do. There are a multitude of examples that would illustrate an effective, but not efficient, logistics system. For example, some companies routinely use premium and/or expedited transportation—which increase transportation costs—to meet customer delivery requirements. As such, the company could be considered effective (meeting
delivery deadlines) but perhaps not efficient (increased transportation costs).
5. Does the fact that information can be substituted for inventory decrease or increase
the difficulty of logistics management? Support your response.
There is not necessarily a ―right‖ or ―wrong‖ answer to this question. On the one hand, substituting information for inventory could decrease the difficulty of
logistics management in the sense that decision making can be based on more
objective, rather than subjective, data. On the other hand, the difficulty of logistics management could be increased because the ability to exactly match supply and demand places greater emphasis on correctly filling and delivering orders.
6. Explain the significance of the fact that the purpose of logistics is to meet customer
requirements.
One reason for this significance is that meeting customer requirements means that companies must know—rather than assume—customer needs and wants. This
knowledge is facilitated by communication between companies and their
customers; even today some companies are hesitant to communicate with
customers. In addition, meeting customer requirements means that a ―one size fits all‖ approach to logistics will result in some customers being overserved and
others being underserved. As a result, companies should consider a ―tailored
logistics‖ approach, where groups of customers with similar logistical needs and wants are provided with the appropriate logistical services.
7. Explain how an understanding of logistics management could be relevant to your
favorite charitable organization.
There are any number of examples that can be used. Consider how the American Red Cross responded to the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001. In a relatively short time, the Red Cross, with private sector support, was able to collect,
assemble, warehouse, transport, and distribute relief supplies such as boots, safety goggles, and protective clothing, to New York City.
8. Discuss three reasons for why logistics has become more important since 1980.
One reason for the increased importance of logistics involves a reduction in
economic regulation. This allowed individual carriers flexibility in terms of
pricing and service and provided them an opportunity to break away from a ―one size fits all‖ approach. Second, logistics has been championed by prominent non-logisticians; one important outcome has been recognition that logistics can be a source of competitive advantage for individual organizations. Third, technological advances have allowed logisticians to make faster, more informed, and more
accurate decisions. The chapter also discusses the growing power of retailers and globalization of trade as reasons for the increased importance of logistics.
9. Which reason for the increased importance of logistics do you believe is most
important? Why?
There is no single answer here. Students can offer compelling support for any one of the five reasons—a reduction in economic regulation; recognition by prominent non-logisticians; technological advances; growing power of retailers;
globalization of trade—presented in the chapter. For example, a reduction in
economic regulation has allowed carriers to offer different pricing-service options to different customers, which is important because different customers are trying to achieve different objectives with their logistical systems.
10. What are some practical implications of the idea that one logistics system does not fit
all companies?
The idea that one logistics system does not fit all companies is derived from the fact that logistical goals and objectives should be compatible with the overall
goals and objectives of a particular company. One basic implication is that
different companies should have different logistical strategies and tactics—and these strategies and tactics should reflect company goals and objectives. As such, a company focusing on cost containment should have different logistics strategies and tactics than a company focusing on superior customer service. For instance, a company concerned with cost containment might purchase in extremely large
quantities
