Explanation / Answer

a>Carrying Cost=Average Inventory*Unit Carrying cost=(3000/2)*6.70= 10050 b>Restoking cost=No of orders in a year*order cost=52*535= 27820 c>EOQ=Square Root(2AB/C),Where A=Annual Requirement,B=Ordering Cost,C=Carrying Cost, EOQ=Square Root(2*3000*52*535/6.7) 3246.6 or say 3250 d>EOQ Number of orders=(3000*52)/3250 48
