Not enough information given to answer this question

Respuesta :

Answer:

a. 480

Explanation:

The computation of the economic order quantity is given below:

[tex]EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2\times annual \ demand \times ordering\ cost }{carrying \ cost}} \\\\= \sqrt{\frac{2\times 3600\times \$32}{\$1} }[/tex]

= 480 units

The carrying cost could be determined below:

= $4 × 25%

= $1

hence, the carrying cost is $1

Therefore the economic order quantity is 480

Thus, the correct option is a.
