Answer:

A. 200 units per order

Explanation:

To solve this you have to use the economic order quantity formula:

[tex]Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H}}[/tex]

Where:

Demand = 4,000

S= supply cost = ordering cost = 20

H= holding cost = 4

[tex]Q_{opt} = \sqrt{\frac{2*4000*20}{4}}[/tex]

Economic Order Quantity = 200

How to Remember:

Demand per year and order cost goes in the dividend.

Holding cost goes in the divisor.
