Explanation / Answer

D = annual demand = $500 x 12 = $6,000
S = fixed ordering cost = $1,000
H = Carrying cost per unit per annum = 15% x Purchase cost + additional cost = 15% x $400 + $40 = $100

EOQ = (2.D.S / H)1/2 = SQRT(2*6000*1000 / 100) = 346 units

Total ordering cost = (D / EOQ) x S = (6000 / 346) x 1000 = $17341

Total carrying cost = (EOQ / 2) x H = (346 / 2) x 100 = $17300

So, total variable inventory cost = $17341 + $17300 = $34,641
