    EOQ in terms of quantity=100 units

    EOQ in terms of dollars=$6,000

    Order to be made in the year=15 orders

    Explanation:

    The EOQ for the given data in the question shall be determined through following formula:

    EOQ = (2AOc/Hc) ^1/2

    A=Annual demand=1,500

    Oc=Cost per order=$50

    Hc=holding cost per unit=25%*60=$15

    EOQ in terms of quantity = (2*1,500*50/15) ^1/2=100 units

    EOQ in terms of dollars=100*60=$6,000

    Order to be made in the year=Annual demand/EOQ

    =1,500/100=15 orders
