Answer:

C.- ↓Holding Cost = ↑Economic Order Quantity

Step-by-step explanation:


eoq = \sqrt{ (2ds)/(h) }

Economic Order Quantity = square root of (2DS/H)

Where:

Demand and setup are in the dividend part, if they increase, the EOQ increase.

Holding cost goes in the divisor, if they increase the EOQ decrease

A- FALSE ↑Holding Cost ≠↑Economic Order Quantity

B- FALSE ↑Demand ≠↑EOQ

C.- Correct ↓Holding Cost = ↑Economic Order Quantity

The divisor is lower, so the value increase.
