For total annual cost calculate by two models that is average and EOQ. Define and show formulas for all the parameters you are using for calculation with the assumption that demand is constant. Give justification as which model i.e. either average or EoQ is better and why? [2.5 (correct formulas for average and EoQ models)+2.5(correct calculation of average and EoQ models)+5 (justification as why to use average or EoQ)+2.5(correct formula of ROP)+2.5(correct calculation of ROP) = 15 marks]
