Explanation / Answer

Annual demand D = 1380 units

Purchase cost C = 400 $

Carrying cost H = 0.21*400 = 84 $

Ordering cost S = 24 $ per order

EOQ without discount = SQRT(2*D*S/H) = SQRT(2*1380*24/84) = 28 units

Total cost at EOQ = (D/Q)*S+(Q/2)*H+C*D = (1380/28)*24+(28/2)*84+400*1380 = 554360 $

Total cost if quantity >=300 = (1380/300)*24+(300/2)*84+0.95*400*1380 = 537110 $

Since the total cost with discount is 1) greater than the total cost without discount, Wnag 2) should not order 300 units at a time in order to qualify for the discount.
