Answer:

4,084

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculation to determine the economic order quantity (EOQ) for Haulsee

Using this formula

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) =((2* Annual Requirement * Cost per order)/Carrying cost per unit)^ (1/2)

Let plug in the formula

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) = ((2*800,000*540)/(370*14%))^(1/2)

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) = 4,084 units

Therefore the economic order quantity (EOQ) for Haulsee is 4,084 units
