A firm has been ordering a certain item 600 units at a time. The firm estimates that ordering cost is $200/order, and that annual demand is 1800 units per year. The assumptions of the basic EOQ model are thought to apply. For what value of holding cost (H: avg $cost of holding one piece for 1 year) would their ordering policy (600 units per order) be economically optimal (be the EOQ)? EOQ = Sq Root[(2D*S)/H] Where: D...

The economic order quantity (EOQ) model is a classical model used for controlling inventory and satisfying demand. Costs included in the model are holding cost per unit, ordering cost, and the cost of goods ordered. The assumptions for that model are that only a single item is considered, that the entire quantity ordered arrives at one time, that the demand for the item is constant over time, and that no shortages arc allowed. Suppose we relax the first assumption and...
