Paul [167]

Answer:

economic production quantity= 2024.6 units

Explanation:

<em>The optimal production run is the economic batch units that minimizes the balance of set-up cost and holding cost. It can be determined by adjusting the economic order quantity (EOQ) model for gradual replenishment , </em>

EBQ = √(2× Co× D)/Ch(1-D/R)

EBQ- Economic /optimal production run

Co- set-up cost per run

Ch- holding cost per unit per annum

D- Annual Supply- 9800× 280

Production rate per day-5000

Optimal production run

=  √(2× 320× 265×250)/11.50×(1-250×250/1650 ×250)

= 2024.6 units
