Q)For supply item HM, Bertha Company has been ordering 130 units based on the recommendation of the salesperson who calls on the company monthly. A new purchasing agent has been hired by the company who wants to start using the economic-order-quantity method and its supporting decision elements. She has gathered the following information:
Annual demand in units
500

Days used per year
500

Lead time, in days
30

Ordering costs
$125

Annual unit carrying costs
$20


Determine the EOQ, average inventory, orders per year, average daily demand, reorder point, annual ordering costs, and annual carrying costs.

Dear Friend,

EOQ=(2 x500 x125/20)^0.50 = 79.05 Units

Average Inventory=79.05/2 = 39.525 / 40 units (rounded off)

Orders Per Year=500/79 = 6.33 or 6 (Rounded off) Orders Per year

Average Daily Demand=500/500 =1 unit

Reorder Levels=1 x 30 = 30 units

Annual Ordering Costs = 6.33 x 125 = $791

Annual Carrying Costs=39.525 x 20 = $791

I am sure this would help...
