Use the following data to answer the questions 5-8.


The Oliphant Corporation sells 4,000 cases of beer monthly. Each case cost $5.00 and the
inventory carrying costs are 20% of the unit’s cost. The inventory ordering costs are $33.75 per
purchase order placed.
5. Using the EOQ table, determine the EOQ for order sizes of 1,600; 1,800; 2,000; and
2,200 cases.
EOQ = 2AO/C = /2(1,600) (33.75) (5)/1 = 734.85
EOQ = 2AO/C = /2(1,800) (33.75) (5)/1 = 779.42
EOQ = 2AO/C = /2(2,000) (33.75) (5)/1 = 821.59
EOQ = 2AO/C = /2(2,200) (33.75) (5)/1 = 861.68

6. Compute the EOQ using the EOQ formula.


EOQ = 2AO/C = /2(4,000) (33.75) (5)/1 = 1,161.90
7. Assume Oliphant’s sales are constant, i.e., 1,000 cases per week, and that it takes 2 weeks
to receive an order once it is placed. Determine the reorder point.
Reordering point = 14 days X 285.71 = 4,000
8. Assume beer sale fluctuate: one week sales are 1,400 cases, and another week sales are
750 cases, but the average is 1,000. The highest sales recorded in the past were 1,400
cases. Determine the reorder point under these conditions.
Reorder point = 14 days X 285.71 = 2,000
