Q: 1 

A fresh produce distributor uses 850 non-returnable packing crates a month, which it purchases at a cost of $6 each. The manager has assigned an annual holding cost of 28 percent of the purchase price per crate. Ordering cost is $25 per order. Currently the manager orders 850 crates at a time. How much could the firm save annually in ordering and holding costs by using the EOQ?

Using three-day freight would cost $140 less than using one-day freight for the shipment of 2,300 units. Another consideration is in-transit holding cost, which is $9 per unit per year. Assume 365 days per year. Which alternative would you recommend?
