The soft goods department of a large
department store sells 184 units per month
of a certain large bath towel. The unit
purchase cost of a towel to the store is $2.5
and the cost of placing an order has been
estimated to be $11. The store's inventory
carrying cost is 33% of the purchase cost of
the goods.
Suppose that the demand rate is a constant
and the EOQ model is used. What is the
optimal annual cost of placing orders and
holding inventory?
