What are the current total carrying costs? (Do not round intermediate calculations.) What are the current restocking costs? (Do not round intermediate calculations.) What is the economic order quantity? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.) Should Trektronics increase or decrease its order size? How many orders per year will Tektronics place under the new policy? (Do not round intermediate calculations and round your answer to 2 decimal places, e.g., 32.16.)

Explanation / Answer

EOQ=2 A 0/ C

A= Annual consumption = 320 x 52=16,640

O = order cost =$63

C= Carrying cost=$27

EOQ= 2 x 16,640/27

         =33,280/27

        =1233

=      35

No of orders per year= Annual consumption per year / EOQ=16,640/35=1268 orders per year
