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...
