Answer:

economic order quantity = 19 units

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

Annual Demand = 850 units

Cost of carrying = $65 per unit

Ordering Cost = $14

solution

we get here economic order quantity that is

economic order quantity =
\sqrt{(2 * Annual Demand *Ordering Cost)/( Cost of carrying)} .....................1

put here value we get

economic order quantity =
\sqrt{(2*850*14)/(65)}

economic order quantity = 19.13514

economic order quantity = 19 units
