    Sir in part A of this question they have taken holding cost per unit of 0.21 whereas it should have been 0.63 according to me and you as well(you had cleared a student’s doubt in previous forum)
    My question is by using 0.63 i am getting a different answer than their solution..

    I am getting
    A (i) Holding cost = 62500*0.63= 39375
    ordering =3124
    Total = 42399

    A (ii) EOQ = 34641 units
    Holding cost= ordering cost=10911
    Total = 21822
    Therefore saving = 20577

    Their saving = 17199

    A (iii) Holding cost =0.63*125000= 78750
    Ordering cost =6*252 = 1512
    Total cost = 80262

    Increase in annual holding and ordering cost= 80262- 42399 = 37863
    Discount benefit = 1.5m*14*0.5% = 105000
    Saving = 105000-37863 = 67137

    Their saving=67399

    Are my answers correct?
    Kindly tell sir..Thanks a lot for ur help
