- 15:52managing inventory is an important task
- 15:55for every business that holds it there
- 15:58are many costs that occur because of
- 16:01inventory that need to be minimized
- 16:03while still providing enough inventory
- 16:05to operate without losing customer
- 16:08business the e oq economic order
- 16:12quantity model is used to minimize these
- 16:15inventory related costs calculation
- 16:19formulas the cost of carrying inventory
- 16:21can be calculated by multiplying the
- 16:25cost of carrying the unit of inventory C
- 16:27by the average number of units carried q
- 16:31usually for a year
- 16:33garrick cost is equal to C in bracket Q
- 16:38by 2 to determine the number of orders
- 16:41we simply divide the total demand d of
- 16:44units per year by Q the size of each
- 16:47inventory order number of order is equal
- 16:51to D by Q to determine the ordering cost
- 16:55multiplied number of order by the fixed
- 16:58cost per order F ordering cost is equal
- 17:03to F in bracket D by Q the total
- 17:08inventory cost for a year for a business
- 17:10is simply the sum of the carrying cost
- 17:13and the ordering cost total inventory
- 17:17cost is equal to C
- 17:19in bracket Q by 2 plus F in bracket D by
- 17:25Q using calculus to determine the
- 17:28minimum point where the slope equals 0
- 17:31will provide us with the optimal order
- 17:34quantity to reduce total inventory cost
- 17:37over the year this is known as the
- 17:40economic order quantity EQ Q is equal to
- 17:452 ft upon C 1 by 2 summary now in the
- 17:52end let us summarize what we have learnt
- 17:55in this lecture receivables are one of
- 17:58the three primary components of working
