They are not taxed by the federal or state governments. Military personnel are not relocated based on the country's national security needs, not their own personal needs.

If the moving expenses exceed the amount given to them by the Air Force, the extra amount is generally tax deductible.

Wood County Hospital consumes 1,000 boxes of bandages per week. The price of bandages is $35 per box, and the hospital operates

jarptica [38.1K]

Answer:

= $367.34

Explanation:

Economic order quantity (EOQ) is the order quantity that minimizes the balance of holding cost and ordering cost. At the EOQ, the holding costs are equal to the ordering costs.

EOQ = (2× Co× D)/Ch

Total relevant cost of inventory = ordering cost + Holding cost

Step 1

Total cost of inventory under EOQ

EOQ for Wood County

EOQ = 2√(2× 15 × 1000× 52)/(15%× 35)

= 545.10 units

ordering cost =( (1000× 52)/ 545.10 ) × 15 = 1,430.90

Holding cost = ( 545.10/ 2) × 15% × 35 =1,430.90

Total cost =1430.90 + 1430.90= $2,861.81

Step 2

Total cost of inventory using order size of 900 boxes

ordering cost =( (1000× 52)/900 ) × 15 = 866.66

Holding cost = (900/ 2) × 15% × 35 = 2,362.5

Total cost = 866.66 + 2,362.5 = $3,229.16

Step 3

Calculate in savings in total costs

Savings = Difference in total inventory cost of EOQ order size and 900 boxes order size :

=$3,229.16-$2,861.81

= $367.34

Savings = $367.34
