Yes, company can accept the offer.
Annual requirement of cost = 8000 units.
cost of each unit = ₹710
ordering cost per order ₹30
carrying cost = 710*7.5%
= 53.25
Economic order quantity =
=
= 95 Units
Total inventory cost =
Cost of inventory = 8000*710 = 5680000
ordering cost = 8000/95*30 = 2526
carrying cost = 5680000*7.5% = 426000
= 6108526
b) total cost = 8000*710-2%
= 8000*695.8 = 5566400
ordering cost = 4*30 = 120
carrying cost= 5566400*7.5% = 417480
= 5984000
