Q. 12.EX.5
Step-by-Step
Verified Solution
SOLUTION \blacktriangleright
TC = \frac{D}{Q}S + \frac{Q}{2}H = \frac{1,000}{200}(\$ 10) + \frac{200}{2}(\$ .50) = (5)($ 10) + (100)($ .50) = $50 + $50 = $100
INSIGHT \blacktriangleright These are the annual setup and holding costs. The $100 total does not include the actual cost of goods. Notice that in the EOQ model, holding costs always equal setup (order) costs.
LEARNING EXERCISE \blacktriangleright Find the total annual cost if D = 1,200 units in Example 3. [Answer: $109.54.]
