Solution

The Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model is used to minimize the costs of ordering and holding inventory. The annual procurement cost can be calculated using the formula:

Annual Procurement Cost = (Annual Demand / EOQ) * Cost per Order

Given in the problem:

  • Annual Demand = 12000 items
  • EOQ = 300 items
  • Cost per Order = Rs. 20

Substituting these values into the formula:

Annual Procurement Cost = (12000 / 300) * 20

Solving this gives:

Annual Procurement Cost = 40 * 20 = Rs. 800

So, the annual procurement cost is Rs. 800.
