INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
Name: Sandig, Faye Arlene Ninez G. Date: May 30, 2022
Course: Production and Operation Management Professor: Dr. Jay Sario

Direction: Solve the following problems:


1. Given the following annual demand, annual carrying cost, and cost per order,
compute the economic order quantity and total minimum cost. Give your decision
analysis.
D = 10,000 units per year
Co = Php5,000 per order
Cc = Php25 per unit per year

Cost per order 5,000


Carrying Cost 25
Annual Demand 10,000
Economic Order Quantity 1,414
No of order per year 7
Ordering cost 35,355
Carrying Cost 17,678
Total minimum cost 53,033

The ideal order size to minimize cost and meet demand is 1,414 with a minimum
cost of Php 53,033 annually.

2. Given the following annual demand, carrying cost, and cost per order, compute
the economic order quantity and total minimum cost. Give your decision analysis.
D = 38,000 units per year
Co = Php2,200 per order
Cc = Php8 per unit per year

Cost per order 2,200


Carrying Cost 8
Annual Demand 38,000
Economic Order Quantity 3,233
No of order per year 12
Ordering cost 25,861
Carrying Cost 12,931
Total minimum cost 38,792

The ideal order size to minimize cost and meet demand is 3,233 with a minimum
cost of Php 38,792 annually.
3. An inventory system has an annual ordering cost of Php12,000 per order, an
annual per unit carrying cost of Php35, and an annual demand of 3,000 units
(assuming a 365-day year). Compute the following:
a. Economic order quantity - 1,014
b. Minimum total annual inventory cost – Php 53,245
c. Optimal number of orders per year - 3
d. Optimal time between orders – 8.22 days
e. Give your decision analysis
The ideal order size to minimize cost and meet demand is 1,014
with a minimum cost of Php 53,245 annually. There will be 3
optimal number of orders per year with an ideal interval of 8.22
days between orders.

Cost per order 12,000


Carrying Cost 35
Annual Demand 3,000
Economic Order Quantity 1,014
Optimal number of orders/year 3
Ordering cost 35,496
Carrying Cost 17,748
Total minimum cost 53,245
Optimal time between orders 8.22

4. The Alpha Shoe Company purchases leather from Beta Textile Mills. The
Alpha Company uses 15,000 yard of leather per year (365 days) to make shoes.
The cost of ordering leather from the textile company is Php100,000 per order. It
costs Alpha Php30 per yard annually to hold a yard of leather in inventory.
Determine:
a. Optimal number of yards of leather the Alpha Company should order. - 7,071

b. Minimum total annual inventory cost – Php 318,198


c. Optimal number of orders per year - 2
d. Optimal time between orders - 41.10 days
e. Give your decision analysis
The ideal order size to minimize cost and meet demand is 7,071 with a
minimum cost of Php 318,198 annually. There will be 2 optimal number of
orders per year with an ideal interval of 41.10 days between orders.
Cost per order 100,000
Carrying Cost 30
Annual Demand 15,000
Economic Order Quantity 7,071
Optimal number of orders/year 2
Ordering cost 212,132
Carrying Cost 106,066
Total minimum cost 318,198
Optimal time between orders 41.10
