b. How many orders will be placed during the year?
c. What will the average inventory be?
d. What is the total cost of ordering and carrying inventory?

A) Economic ordering quantity ==$1,300

B)Orders placed during the year=  65 orders

C)average inventory= 650units

D)total cost of ordering and carrying inventory= $1,560

Step-by-step explanation:

A) Economic ordering quantity =

=

=

=$1,300

B)Orders placed during the year= Annual demand ÷ economic order quantity

= $84,500 ÷ 1,300 units

= 65 orders

C)average inventory= Economic order quantity ÷ 2

= 1,300 units ÷ 2

=650units

D)total cost of ordering and carrying inventory

Ordering cost = Number of orders × ordering cost per order

                         = 65 orders × $12

                                           = $780

Carrying cost = average inventory × carrying cost per unit

                                 = 650 units × $1.20

                                     = $780

The total would be  = $780 + $780 = $1,560
