Question 39 Hint.
In order to calculate total annual inventory cost, you must first calulate the optimal order size. D= annual demand. C= annual carrying. cost Co cannualordering cost
The optimal order quantity oceus at the point in Egure 13.3 where the total cost cune is at a minimum, which coincides exactly with the point where the carrying cost curve intersects the ordering cost curve. This enables us to deternine the optimal ralue of Q by cquating the tho cost functions and solving for Q :
C0DQ=CcQ2
Q2=2C0DOlon
Qect=2C0DClon2
Alternativel), the optimal value of Q can be determined by differentiating the total cost curve with respect to Q, setting the resulting function equal to zero (the slope at the minimum point on the total cost curve), and solving for Q :
TC=C0DQ+ClonQ2
delTCdelQ=-C0DQ2+Clon2
0=-C0DQ2+C22
Qe1=2C0DClon2
The total minimum cost is determined by substituting the value for the optimal order size, Qopt, into the total cost equation:
TCma=C0DQct+CcQ0p2
