Respuesta :

Answer:

400

Explanation:

Calculation to determine the economic order quantity is using the basic EOQ model,

Using this formula

EOQ=√(2[Demand][Order cost] / [Unit holding cost])

Where,

Demand=320

Order cost =$1,000

Unit holding cost =$4

Let plug in the formula

EOQ=√2*320*1,000/$4

EOQ=√640,000/$4

EOQ=√160,000

EOQ=400

Therefore the economic order quantity is using the basic EOQ model is 400
