Answer:
A) economic order quantity ( order quantity model that will minimize the total holding cost and ordering costs ) = =
= 122. 74 ≈ 122 ( optimal ordering quantity ) units
B) Annual holding cost = 23 * 122 / 2 = $1403
C ) Annual ordering costs = 1500/122 * 77 = $947
D ) The reorder point = daily demand * lead time = 50 * 3 = 150 units
Explanation:
Annual demand for connectors : 1500
ordering cost ( cost to place and process an order ) : $77
annual holding cost per unit : $23
A) economic order quantity ( order quantity model that will minimize the total holding cost and ordering costs ) = =
= 122. 74 ≈ 122 ( optimal ordering quantity ) units
B) Annual holding cost = 23 * 122/2 = $1403
C ) Annual ordering costs = 1500 / 122 * 77 = $946.72 ≈ $947
D ) The reorder point = daily demand * lead time = 50 * 3 = 150 units
daily demand = 1500 / 300 = 50
lead time = 3
