2) Pam runs a mail order business for gym equipment. Annual demand for the TricorFlexers is $16000. The annual holding costs per unit is $2.50 and the order costs are $50. What is the EOQ?

3) Using the same holding and ordering costs as above, suppose demand for the TriFlexors doubles to 32000. Does the EOQ double as well?

4) Quizno’s sells large tins of Tom Tucker’s Toffee. The deli uses a periodic review system checking inventory every 10 days, at which time an order is placed for more tins. Lead time is 3 days.

Calculate the restocking level
