Answer:

a. 208.57 units

b. 104.29 units

Explanation:

a. The computation of the economic order quantity is shown below:

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}

= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{6,000}\times \text{\$29}}{\text{\$8}}}

= 208.57 units

b. And, the average inventory is

= Economic order quantity ÷ 2

= 208.57 units ÷ 2

= 104.29 units

We simply applied the above formulas for calculation of the economic order quantity and the average inventory and the same is shown above

Externality, refers to the benefit s or costs that someone else incurs based on the economic decision of another person. In this case, this is a negative externality as the small town bears the cost of the production activities of the company.

b. A single public utilities company is responsible for supplying electricity for an entire state. As a result, the utilities company can set the price of electricity - Market power
