    Annual demand (D) = 80 units x 250 days = 20,000 units

    Ordering cost per order (Co) = $45

    Holding cost (H) = 22% x $10.95 = $2.409

    EOQ = √ 2 x 20,000 x $45

    $2.409

    EOQ = 747 units

    Explanation:

    EOQ is the square root of 2 multiplied by annual demand multiplied by ordering cost per order divided by holding cost per item per annum. Holding cost is 22% of the unit cost (22% x $10.95).
