MgtOp 340 Exam 2 EOQ Suppose that JJ Inc. has a production rate of 250‚000 units per year and a demand of 800 per day. JJ has a setup cost of $40‚ and a holding cost percentage of 25%. JJ sells their product for $50 and it costs them $30 to produce it. If JJ works for 250 days per year‚ what is the optimal batch size? p=(250‚000/250days)=1‚000 P=250‚000(production rate) d=800 D=(800*250days)=200‚000 S=$40 I=.25 c=$30 H=(.25*30)=7.5 Optimal batch size => sqrt([2DS/H(1-d/p)]
