Answer:

156

Step-by-step explanation:

Production order quantity can be calculated by:
√(2*K*D / h*(1-x))

Where, K = Setup Cost , D = Annual demand, H = Holding cost , x = d/p (daily demand rate/ daily production rate).

Production order quantity =
√(2 * 50 *3650/12 * (1 - 20/100))

Production order quantity =
√(2 * 50 * 3650/12 * (1 - 0.2))

Production order quantity =
√(2 * 50 * 3650/12 * 0.8)

Production order quantity =
√(2 * 50 * 304.17 * 0.8)

Production order quantity =
√(24333.6)

Production order quantity = 155.9923075026458

Production order quantity = 156 (rounding off)

So, the production order quantity for this​ problem is 156
