EOQ Formula EOQ   Where, EOQ=Economic Order Quantity D=Annual demand(units per year) S=Ordering cost per year H=Holding cost per unit per year Demand(D): How many units are needed in a year. Ordering cost(S):Cost incurred every time to place an order(e.g. Labor, shipping, communication, paperwork) Holding cost(H):Cost to store one unit for a year(e.g. warehousing, depreciation, insurance).

-:EXAMPLE OF USE OF EOQ:- Suppose a company sells 5,000 units per year of a product. Each time they place an order ,it costs them 1rs/- and holding cost per unit per year is 4rs/- . Now calculate the EOQ ? Given, D=5,000 S=1 H=2 EOQ = =50

LIMITATION ASSUMES : Constant Demand REALITY: Demand can seasonal, irregular, & unpredictable ASSUMES: Constant Ordering & Holding Cost REALITY :Can vary due to discount and storage ASSUMES :Single item Focus REALITY : Multi Item Focus ASSUMES : No stockout Allowed REALITY: Many business tolerate some stockout ASSUMES: Don’t assume the life span REALITY : Many product has limited life span (Expiry date)

TECHNOLOGICAL ADVANCE IN EOQ Inventory Management Software Real Time Inventory update Data Easy Analysis Integration with Sales & Purchase Artificial Intelligence (AI) & Machine Learning(ML) Seasonal forecasting Adoptable to market changes Reduce stockout & overstock Big Data Analysis Enhance demand forecasting Better cost analysis Can look Multiple Product Advance forecasting tool EOQ becomes dynamic Can adjust real World data Minimize Human Error
