The correct answer is: A. Economic Order Quantity.

EOQ stands for Economic Order Quantity. It is the optimal quantity of goods to order at a time in order to minimize the total costs associated with ordering and carrying inventory.

The EOQ is calculated by taking into account the following factors:

  • The cost of ordering goods
  • The cost of carrying inventory
  • The demand for the goods
  • The lead time for the goods

The EOQ can be calculated using the following formula:

EOQ = รขยˆยš(2DC/h)

where:

  • D = the demand for the goods in units per year
  • C = the cost of ordering goods per order
  • h = the holding cost per unit per year

The EOQ is a useful tool for businesses to minimize their inventory costs. By ordering the optimal quantity of goods at a time, businesses can save money on ordering costs and carrying costs.
