    Economic order quantity (EOQ) is the perfect request amount an organization should buy for its stock given a set cost of creation, request rate and different factors.

    This is how we calculate this;

    Economic order quantity = square root (2*demand * fixed cost / holding cost)

    demand = 14,400

    fixed cost = $77

    holding cost = $23

    =√ ((2*14,400) (77 / 23))

    = √ (2880) (3.348)

    = √ (96422.4)

    =310.5 = 310 units
