Southeastern Bell stocks a certain switch connector at its central warehouse for supplying field service offices. The yearly demand for these connectors is 15 comma 000 units. Southeastern estimates its annual holding cost for this item to be $25.00 per unit. The cost to place and process an order from the supplier is $75.00. The company operates 300 days per year, and the lead time to receive an order from the supplier is 2 working days. a) What is the economic order quantity? nothing units (round your response to the nearest whole number). b) What are the annual holding costs? $ nothing (round your response to the nearest whole number). c) What are the annual ordering costs? $ nothing (round your response to the nearest whole number). d) What is the reorder point? nothing units (round your response to the nearest whole number).

EOQ= 300 units

Annual ordering cost= $3750

Annual holding cost =$3750

Re-order point =100 units

Explanation:

The Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) is the order size that minimizes the balance of ordering cost and holding cost. At the EOQ, the carrying cost is equal to the holding cost.

It is computed using he formulae below

EOQ = √ (2× Co× D)/Ch

EOQ = √ (2× 75× 15,000)/25

EOQ = 300 units

Annual holding cost

= EOQ/2 × holding cost per unit

= 300/2 ×  $25

=$3750

Annual ordering cost

= Annul demand/EOQ × ordering cost per order

=( 15,000/300)× $75

= $3750

Re-order Point

Maximum consumption × maximum lead time

=( 15,000/300)× 2 = 100 units

rational decision making is a multi-step process for making choices between alternatives. the process of rational decision making favors logic, objectivity, and analysis over subjectivity and insight. the word “rational” in this context does not mean sane or clear-headed as it does in the colloquial sense.
