Answer 1

Answer:

Inventory cost will be $3

So option (b) is correct option

Explanation:

We have given that carrying and setup cost is $600

So carrying and setup cost = $600

And EOQ = 200 units

We have to find the inventory carrying cost per year

We know that inventory carrying cost is given by

inventory carrying cost $=\frac{carrying\ and\ setup\ cost}{EOQ}=\frac{600}{200}= 3$

So option (b) will be correct option
