Find EOQ and Annual demand from the following:

Lead time and consumption are constant and safety stock is Rs 10000.

Maximum Level is 4 times the safety stock and carrying cost is 20% per annum.The carrying cost at optimum order size is Rs 6000 which also includes the carrying cost of safety stock.

Cost of placing an order is Rs 6000.

carrying cost =20% of avg inventory

avg inventory=carrying cost/20%

                        =6000/20%

                       = 30000

value per order =2 * 30000= 60000

annual demand=x

EOQ=under root  (2 *x*6000/.20)

60000*60000=2*x*6000/.20

by solving this annual demand   =60000

verify

at EOQ carrying cost=ordering cost=6000

i think this is correct??

we can obviously see that TCC=TOC when Q=Rs60000

But from where are u getting this Rs60000? where did u get this formula? Value Per order=2x30000=Rs 60000?

there is no need for any formula or u can say just go in reverse order to what u use to do for calculating total carrying cost

its total carrying cost= 20% of stock   (its calculated on avg. stock)

and avg. stock is half the order/EOQ/optimum order etc

well,then something must be wrong, Max Level=Ordering Level+EOQ-CxL+Safety Stock,so if we put the same,the equation is not followed up as it says Max Level=4 times the Safety Stock
