Answer: SEE EXPLANATION

A. 198.27 UNITS

B. 99.14 UNITS

C. 30.76 ORDERS

D. 8.12 DAYS

E. $1,784.43

Explanation:

Given the following ;

Annual order = 6,100

Carrying cost = $9 per unit per year

Ordering cost = $29

A) EOQ =sqrt[( 2 × Annual order × (ordering cost ÷ carrying cost)]

EOQ = sqrt[2 ×6100 × (29÷9)]

EOQ = sqrt(12200 × 3.22222222)

EOQ = 198.27 units

B.) AVERAGE INVENTORY :

EOQ ÷ 2

198.27 ÷ 2 = 99.14 UNITS

C.) Optimal number of orders per year:

Demand / order per year

6,100 ÷ 198.27 = 30.76 orders

D.) Optimal number of days between two orders:

Number of working days ÷ optimal number of orders

250 ÷ 30.76 = 8.12 days.

E.) Annual cost of ordering and holding inventory:

$198.27 × $9 = $1,784.43
