Two fundamental decisions/ questions in Inventory
Management
1. The timing (When to order?)
2.Size of an order? (How much to order?)
The Inventory Cycle
Average

Q = 350 units (Qty on Usage rate = 50 units per day

Hand)
Where:
TC = Total cost
H = Carrying or holding cost per unit, on an annual basis
Q = Order quantity
S = Cost of ordering
D = Annual demand
• The relationships among the ordering cost, carrying costs, and total cost
curve:
11-28
Holding (Carrying) Costs
• Obsolescence
• Insurance
• Extra staffing
• Interest
• Damage
• Warehousing
• Etc.
Ordering Costs
• Supplies
• Forms
• Order processing
• Clerical support
• etc.

Sample Problem:
1. A local distributor for a national tire company expects to sell 9,600 steel
belted radial tires of a certain size and trade design next year. Annual carrying
cost is P 16 per tire, and ordering cost is P 75. The distributor operates 288
days a year.
Solution:
2DS 2(9600)(75)
a. EOQ = = = 300 tires/order
H 16

D 9,600 tires/year
b. Number of orders = = = 32 orders /year
Q 300 tires/order
= P2,400 + P2,400

Sample Problem:
1. A toy manufacturer uses 48,000 rubber wheels per year for its popular
dump truck series. The firm makes its own wheels, which it can produce
at a rate of 800 per day. The toy trucks are assembled uniformly over the
entire year. Carrying cost is $ 1 per wheel a year. Set up cost for a
production run of wheels is $ 45. The firm operates 240 days per year.
Solution:
Q 2,400 wheels
b. Cycle Time = = = 12 days
d 200 wheels/day
Q 2,400 wheels
c. Run time = = = 3 days

2. Only one of the unit prices will have the minimum in its feasible range
since the ranges do not overlap. Identify that range.
a. If the feasible minimum point is on the lowest price range, that is the
optimal order quantity.
b. If the feasible minimum point is in any other range, compute the total
cost for the minimum point and for the price breaks of all lower unit costs.
Compare the total costs; the quantity (minimum point or price breaks)
that yields the lowest total cost is the optimal order quantity.
