How to Calculate Economic Order Quantity

Formula

EOQ = sqrt(2 x Annual Demand x Ordering Cost / Holding Cost Per Unit)

The EOQ model, developed by Ford W. Harris in 1913, finds the sweet spot between ordering too frequently (high ordering costs) and ordering too much at once (high holding costs). At the EOQ, total ordering costs equal total holding costs, producing the lowest combined inventory expense. While the model assumes constant demand and lead times, it provides an excellent starting point for inventory optimization.

हल किया गया उदाहरण

Annual demand is 10,000 units. Each order costs $50 to place, and holding one unit for a year costs $4.

  1. EOQ = sqrt(2 x 10,000 x $50 / $4) = sqrt(250,000) = 500 units
  2. Orders Per Year = 10,000 / 500 = 20 orders
  3. Total Annual Cost = sqrt(2 x 10,000 x $50 x $4) = $2,000
