Answer:

The appropriate solution is "764".

Explanation:

Given:

Demand per month,

D = 405

or,

  = [tex]405\times 12[/tex]

  = [tex]4860[/tex]

Ordering cost,

S = $15

Holding cost,

H = $0.25

As we know,

⇒  [tex]EOQ=\sqrt{\frac{2DS}{H} }[/tex]

⇒            [tex]=\sqrt{\frac{2\times 4860\times 15}{0.25} }[/tex]

⇒            [tex]=\sqrt{\frac{145800}{0.25} }[/tex]

⇒            [tex]=\sqrt{583200}[/tex]

⇒            [tex]=763.67[/tex]

or,

⇒            [tex]=764[/tex]
