Annual demand equals 1,500 units, delivered purchase cost equals $60/unit, annual inventory carrying cost percentage equals 25% and ordering cost equals $50/order. What is the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) in units and dollars and how many orders will need to be made in a year?

Respuesta :

Answer:

EOQ in terms of quantity=100 units

EOQ in terms of dollars=$6,000

Order to be made in the year=15 orders

Explanation:

The EOQ for the given data in the question shall be determined through following formula:

EOQ=(2AOc/Hc)^1/2

A=Annual demand=1,500

Oc=Cost per order=$50

Hc=holding cost per unit=25%*60=$15

EOQ in terms of quantity=(2*1,500*50/15)^1/2=100 units

EOQ in terms of dollars=100*60=$6,000

Order to be made in the year=Annual demand/EOQ

                                                =1,500/100=15 orders
