Determine the most economical quality to be stock for each product that a manufacturing company has in its inventory. This quantity, called economic order quality(EOQ) is calculated as follows:

EOQ = 2RS
I
Where:
R = total yearly production requirement
S = set up cost per order
I = inventory carrying cost per unit

EOQ Example 2
Kensi Paper mills company purchases a component directly from the supplier. The
company is operated at a constant rate and will require 1200 components per month
throughout the year. Assume ordering costs are K25 per order, unit cost is K2 per
component, and annual holding costs are charged at 20 percent. The company operates
240 days per year, and the lead time is 5 days.
a. Recommend the number of components the company should be ordering every time
they are replenishing stock?
b. Compute the total annual inventory holding and ordering costs.
c. Compute the reorder point.
d. Derive the inventory policy of this company
e. Suppose that the company's management likes the operational efficiency of ordering in
quantities of 1200 units and ordering once each month.
i. How much more expensive would this policy be than the one you recommended in
(a) above?
ii. What would the reorder point be if the 1200-unit quantity were acceptable?
f. Why should the company hold this inventory?
g. What costs do the company incur for holding this inventory?

[@jonnokao6085]

What happens if orders placed in multiples of 300 units does that change your re-order point.

[@zae5pm]

I think his re-order point is wrong

[@melartte655]

I need assistance on this! Where do I enquire?

[@Counttuts]

Good day, our contact details are available in our description above.

[@oorishawo]

You said C is equql to 20% of P which is 0.02*3. Then you left P out of the denominator calculation. C *P. You only calculated C

[@nurhanis6833]

Thankyouu sir!

[@nurhanis6833]

Hello sir i have question, holding cost and annual holding cost. Are they differ to each other?

[@momojr7023]

please help
Demand is 5,000 units per year. Ordering cost is N100 per order and the basic unit price is N5. Carrying cost are 20% per annual. Discounts are available thus:
1,200 - 1,399 Less 10%
1,400 - 1,499 Less 15%
1,500 and over Less 20%
What is the most economical quantity to order?

[@hwangjeongin1387]

Hi! Just to clarify,
1. Utility bills are under what part of cost? Ordering or carrying?
2. If the ordering cost increases, EOQ also increases, right?
