Question 16 NECO • 2025 • COMMERCE • objective

An importer forecasts an annual demand of \(12{,}000\) units of product X. The ordering cost per order is \(\text{₦}500\). The unit cost is \(\text{₦}200\) per unit, and the holding cost is \(20\%\) of the unit cost per year. The warehouse can store at most \(1{,}500\) units. If an order quantity exceeds \(800\) units, the supplier gives a \(5\%\) discount on the unit cost for the whole order. Determine the order quantity that minimises the total relevant cost (ordering plus holding) while respecting the storage limit and the discount condition, and compute the minimum total relevant cost (in ₦).

Answer Options

A. Order quantity = 600 units; Minimum total relevant cost ≈ ₦22,100
B. Order quantity = 800 units; Minimum total relevant cost ≈ ₦22,500
C. Order quantity = 500 units; Minimum total relevant cost ≈ ₦21,500
Correct Answer D. Order quantity = 548 units; Minimum total relevant cost ≈ ₦21,909
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
Order quantity = 548 units; Minimum total relevant cost ≈ ₦21,909
