4: (Calculation of EOQ and Total variable cost)
Illustration
(i)ComputeE.O.Q.and the total variable cost for the following:
AnnualDemand 5,000 units
Unit price ao.oo
Ordercost e16.oo
Storage rate 2% per annum
Interest rate 12% per annum
Obsolescence rate 6% per annum
(ii)Determinethe total variable cost that would result for the items if an incorrect price of
12.80is used.
Solution:
(i) Carrying COSt= Storage rate 2%
Interest Rate 12%
ObsolescenceRate - 6%
Note: As the units purchase cost of 1 does not change in both the computation,the same
hasnotbeen considered to arrive at total cost of inventory for the purpose of savings.
Illustration6: (Evaluation of discount offer and EOQ)
A Company manufactures a special product which requires a component 'Alpha'. The
followingparticularsare collected for the year 2011:
i) Annual demand of Alpha 8,000 units
ii) Cost of placing an order 200 per order
iii) Cost per unit of Alpha uoo
iv) Carrying cost p.a. 20%
Thecompanyhas been offered a quantity discount of 4 % on the purchase of 'Alpha'provided
theordersize is 4,000 components at a time.
Required :
i) Computethe economic order quantity
ii) Advise whetherthe quantity discount offer can be accepted.
Solution:
i) Calculation of Economic Order Quantity
(0
Purchase Cost (8,000 units x 400)
Ordering Cost [(8,000 units/200units) x 000] 8,000
Carrying Cost (200 units x x l/2 x 20/100) 8,000
Total Cost 32, 16,000
(b) When Quantity Discount is accoptod
Advise The total cost of inventory is lower if E()Q is adopted, Hence, the
is advised not to accept the quantity discount.
Illustration 7: (Calculation of EOQ)
The complete Gardener is deciding on the economic order quantity for two brands of
fertilizer. Super Grow and Nature's Own. The following informationis co//ected:
Fertilizer
Super Grow Nature's Own
Annual demand 2,000 bags 1,280 bags
Relevant ordering cost per purchase order (1,200 {1,400
Annual relevant carrying cost per bag (480 (560
Required:
(i) Compute EOQ for Super Grow and Nature's own.
(ii) For the EOQ, what is the sum of the total annual relevant ordering costs and total annual
relevant carrying costs for Super Grow and Nature's own?
(iii) For the EOQ, compute the number of deliveries per year for Super Grow and Nature'
own.
Solution:
2AO
EOO =
c
Where,
A = Annual Demand
O = Ordering cost per order
.(ii) Total annual relevant cost = Total annual relevant ordering costs + Total annual relevant
carrying cost
Super Grow Nature's own
+ (1/2 x 80 bags x
1
(2,000/100 x + ( /2 x 100 bags = (1,280/80 x
x <480) 560)
= 22,400 + 22,400= 44,800
= 24,000 + 24,000 = 48,000
Weekly production varies from 175 to 225 units, averaging 200 units of the said product What
would be the following quantities:
(i) Minimum stock of A,
(ii) Maximum stock of B,
(iii) Re-order level of C,
(iv) Average stock level of A.
Solution
price fluctuations. methodas it uses FIFO or LIFO. Its advan-
tages and disadvantages thereforewill depend
upon the use of the other method viz., FIFO or
LIFO.
