Rugged Outfitters purchases one model of mountain bike at a wholesale cost of $520 per unit and resells it to end consumers. The annual demand for the company’s product is 49,000 units. Ordering costs are $500 per order and carrying costs are $100 per bike per year, including $40 in the opportunity cost of holding inventory. Q. Assume that when evaluating the manager, the company excludes the opportunity cost of carrying inventory. If the manager makes the EOQ decision excluding the opportunity cost of carrying inventory, the relevant carrying cost would be $60, not $100. How would this affect the EOQ amount and the actual annual relevant cost of ordering and carrying inventory?
