The Gilbert Air-Conditioning Company is considering the purchase of a special shipment of portable air conditioners manufactured in Japan. Each unit will cost Gilbert $75, and it will be sold for $125. Gilbert does not want to carry surplus air conditioners over until the following year. Thus, all surplus air conditioners will be sold to a wholesaler for $45 per unit. Assume that the air conditioner demand follows a normal probability distribution with μ =20 and σ = 8.

She decides to experiment with inventory control methods, such as using a continuous review (fixed-order quantity) and/or periodic review (fixed-order period) system. The 28-ounce bottle of Super Algaecide (SA) is a high margin SKU, but it stocks out frequently. Ten SA bottles come in each box, and she orders boxes from a vendor 160 miles away. Brenda is busy running the store and seldom has time to review store inventory status and order the right quantity at the right time. She collected the following data: Demand = 10 boxes per week Store open = 48 weeks/year Order cost = $36/order Lead-time = 5 weeks Item cost = $72/box Std. deviation in weekly demand = 8 Inventory-holding cost = 25 percent year Service level = 90 percent What is the economic order quantity (EOQ) rounded to the next highest number?
