Respuesta :

Answer:

EOQ= 19 units

Explanation:

Giving the following information:

Demand= 145 units

Order cost= $25 per order

Holding cost= $20.

To calculate the optimal order quantity, we need to use the economic order quantity method:

Economic order quantity (EOQ)= √[(2*D*S)/H]

D= Demand in units

S= Order cost

H= Holding cost

EOQ= √[(2*145*25) / 20]

EOQ= √362.5

EOQ= 19 units
