It costs $21 to place and ship each order and $2.35 per year for each box held as inventory. The company is using Economic Order Quantity model in placing the orders. Answer 188 Units

Explanation / Answer

8.7 EOQ = SQRT(2*Quantity*cost per order/carrying cost per order)

quantity = 18,458 cost per order =25 carrying cost = 3.67.

Putting the nos. in formula

EOQ = (2*18458*25/3.67)^0.5

= 251,471.3896^0.5 = 501 units

8.8

EOQ = SQRT(2*Quantity*cost per order/carrying cost per order)

quantity = 7899 cost per order =21 carrying cost = 2.35.

Putting the nos. in formula

= SQRT (2*7899*21/2.35)

= 141,173.617^0.5

= 376 units
