Economic Order Quantity (EOQ):
Economic order quantity is the quantity of order that is purchased from supplier at a time, the EOQ aim is to reduce the carrying and ordering cost of inventory. EOQ is also referred as the optimum level of lot size.
To compute: The optimum order quantity using EOQ model.
2. a.
To compute: The number of order per year.
2.b.
To compute: The annual relevant total cost of ordering and carrying inventory.
3.
To compute: The optimum order quantity using EOQ model, the annual relevant total cost of ordering and carrying inventory.
4.
To explain: The cost impact on the company of excluding opportunity cost of carrying inventory when making EOQ decisions. Explain the reason of excluding the opportunity cost of carrying inventory when evaluating manager performance and also specify method to company to encourage manger to make decision more congruent with the goal of reducing total inventory cost.

Horngren's Cost Accounting: A Managerial Emphasis (16th Edition)
- Basu Company produces two types of sleds for playing in the snow: basic sled and aerosled. The projected income for the coming year, segmented by product line, follows: The selling prices are 30 for the basic sled and 60 for the aerosled. (Round break-even packages and break-even units to the nearest whole unit.) Required: 1. Compute the number of units of each product that must be sold for Basu to break even. 2. Assume that the marketing manager changes the sales mix of the two products so that the ratio is five basic sleds to three aerosleds. Repeat Requirement 1. 3. CONCEPTUAL CONNECTION Refer to the original data. Suppose that Basu can increase the sales of aerosleds with increased advertising. The extra advertising would cost an additional 195,000, and some of the potential purchasers of basic sleds would switch to aerosleds. In total, sales of aerosleds would increase by 12,000 units, and sales of basic sleds would decrease by 5,000 units. Would Basu be better off with this strategy?arrow_forwardAn organisation manufactures a single product.
