The different order quantities should be in separate rows. Make sure there is a column showing total annual holding costs and another column showing total annual ordering costs for each order quantity.
D) Indicate the Economic Order Quantity by highlighting the row with the quantity closest to the EOQ, based on the sum of the quantity annual holding and ordering cost.
E) Calculate the Economic Order Quantity directly using the appropriate equation in the lecture.
