B. Annual holding​ costs= 3,669

C. Annual ordering​ costs= 3,669

D. 154

Explanation:

a) Calculation for the economic order​ quantity

Using this formula

Economic order​ quantity=√2*Demand*Cost order/Annual holding cost

Let plug in the formula

Economic order​ quantity=√2*15,400*76/23

Economic order​ quantity=√2,340,800/23

Economic order​ quantity=√101,774

Economic order​ quantity= 319

b) Calculation for annual holding​ costs

Using this formula

Annual holding​ costs=Economic order​ quantity/2*Annual holding cost

Let plug in the formula

Annual holding​ costs=319/2*23

Annual holding​ costs= 3,669

c) Calculation for the annual ordering​ costs

Using this formula

Annual ordering​ costs=Demand/Economic order​ quantity*Cost order

Let plug in the formula

Annual ordering​ costs=15,400/319*76

Annual ordering​ costs= 3,669

d) Calculation for reorder​ point

Using this formula

Reorder point=Demand/Numbers of days the company operate per​ year*Lead time

Let plug in the formula

Reorder point=15,400/300 days per year*3

Reorder point= 154
