Question

In an inventory control system, the annual demand is 12,000 units, the ordering cost is GHS 30 per order and the inventory holding cost is GHS 3.00 per year. The order quantity is 1000 units and the cost per unit of the item is GHS 150. What is the total cost per year?

Answer 1

Answer:

Total cost per year = $1,801,860

Explanation:

Given:

Annual demand = 12,000 units

Ordering cost = $30 per order

Inventory holding cost = $3 per year

Order quantity = 1000 units

Cost per unit of the item = $150

Find:

Total cost per year

Computation:

Total cost per year = Purchase cost + Order cost + Inventory holding cost

Total cost per year = [12,000 x 150] + [12,000/1000 x 30] + [1,000/2 x 3]

Total cost per year = 1,800,000 + 360 + 1500

Total cost per year = $1,801,860
