Perfect answer for this Question is A) economic order quantity model is used to forecast order sizes.

But it also helps in deciding Sale price (only Valid if cost Mark-up Technique is used) as it defines minimum holding cost which is one the important part of total Cost. If total cost varies sale price varies.

E.g. (Other Cost20 + holding Cost10 = Total Cost30 x Mark-up10% = Sale Price33)

 

E.g. (Other Cost20 + holding Cost5 = Total Cost25 x Mark-up10% = Sale Price27.5)

 

Therefore Option C is also Correct.
