Explanation / Answer

Per year order = 8,291,440

Next year order = 13 x 8,291,440 = 10,77,88,720

Carrying cost = $0.18 per card

Ordering cost = $296 per order

Inventory management cost = 13 times per order quantity cost + carrying cost per card x number of cards

Inventory managemnet cost = (13 x 296) + (0.18 x 10,77,88,720)

= $3,848 + $19,401,969.6 = $19,405,817,6
