The primary purpose of the basic economic order quantity model is
a. to calculate the reorder point, so that replenishments take place at the proper time
b. to minimize the sum of carrying cost and holding cost
c. to maximize the customer service level
d. to minimize the sum of setup cost and holding cost e. to calculate the optimum safety stock

D. to minimize the sum of setup cost and holding cost e. to calculate the optimum safety stock

Explanation:

Economic order quantity ( EOQ ) is formulated as :

Co = Ordering cost

D = annual demand

Ch = Annual unit holding cost

Economic quantity is the order quantity which minimizes sum of annual cost of ordering and annual inventory holding cost  so to minimize the overall cost of the inventory.

ANSWER : d) to minimize the sum of setup cost and holding cost that is to calculate the optimum safety stock.

humans, along with other animals and plants, have linear chromosomes that are arranged in pairs within the nucleus of the cell. the only human cells that do not contain pairs of chromosomes are reproductive cells, or gametes, which carry just one copy of each chromosome.

the transfer of energy between two molecules spaced just nanometers apart plays a key role in many technologies, including photovoltaics, quantum information systems, lighting, and sensors, as well as in biophysics to measure nanometer distances and in photosynthesis. but an open question in this area is what effect, if any, the surrounding photonic environment has on this nanoscale energy transfer. by designing and performing a carefully controlled experiment to answer this question, scientists have settled the debate and found clues to improving the efficiency of many of the technologies that rely on this process.
