The annual demand is 2,000 units and the ordering cost is $50 per order. The carrying cost per unit is $3.20. Using these figures, calculate the expected number of orders per year.

Respuesta :

Answer:

8 orders per year

Explanation:

Annual demand, D = 2,000 units

Ordering cost, O = $50 per order

Holding cost, H = $3.20

[tex]Economic\ order\ quantity(Q)=\sqrt{\frac{2\times D\times O}{H} }[/tex]

[tex]Economic\ order\ quantity(Q)=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 2,000\times 50}{3.2} }[/tex]

                          = 250 units

Hence,

No. of orders per year [tex]=\frac{D}{Q}[/tex]

                                     [tex]=\frac{2,000}{250}[/tex]

                                            = 8 orders per year
