Question

Consider the basic EOQ model. We want to know the
sensitivity of (1) the optimal order quantity, (2) the
sum of the annual order cost and the annual holding
cost (not including the annual purchase cost cD), and(3) the time between orders to various parameters of
the problem.
a. How do (1), (2), and (3) change if the setup cost K
decreases by 10%?
b. How do (1), (2), and (3) change if the annual
demand doubles?
c. How do (1), (2), and (3) change if the cost of capital increases by 10%? (For this part, assume that
the storage cost s is zero.)
d. How do (1), (2), and (3) change if the changes in
parts a, b, and c all occur simultaneously?
