To calculate the optimal lot size for purchasing our inventory, we have to evalute the following:

Carrying cost per unit per year = C

Fixed cost per order = F

Demand in units per year = D

Use:

Economic Order Quantity is the optimal order size to minimize our inventory costs

 We can calculate using formula (EOQ)Economic Order Quantity=√2 x Co x D/Ch,where Co is the cost of placing one order,D is the annual demand,and Ch is the annual cost of holding one unit of inventory.

We can calculate the optimal lot size for procurement of our inventory by calculating the below..

(1) Our Annual Usage Size (which means how much of products we expect to sell in an year. Eg 150 units)

(2) Our Setup Cost (which is the one-off cost incurred each time we order goods that includes mainly of administrative costs Eg 10 $)

(3) Annual Holding Cost per Unit (which is the amount it costs us to keep the stock for one year such as rent for storage space, bank loan interest, insurance fee etc. Eg Annual Holding Costs is 3,500 $)

Ann. Hold. Cost /Ann. Usage = Ann. Hold. Cost per Unit

3500 /150 = 23.33

(4) Optimal Order Quantity

{2*(Ann. Usage in Units * Setup Cost /Ann. Hold. Cost per Unit }^(1/2)

{2*(150*10)/23.33}^(1/2)

= 11.33
