Which one of the following is not part of calculation of EOQ ?

  • A.Annual Requirement (A)
  • B.Per Order Cost (O)
  • C.Carrying Cost Per Unit (C)
  • D.Number of Orders (N)

Answer: D

The item not used in calculating EOQ is the number of orders (N).

The economic order quantity balances ordering and carrying costs:

\[ EOQ = \sqrt{\frac{2AO}{C}} \]

where A is the annual requirement, O the cost per order and C the carrying cost per unit per year. The number of orders is an output of the calculation, found afterwards as A divided by EOQ, not an input to it.
