One of the top-selling merchandise at the Eiffel Tower gift shop is a model of the Eiffel Tower. Sales are 20 units per week, and the supplier charges $40 per unit. The cost of placing an order with the supplier is $45. Annual holding costs are 20% of a feeder’s value, and the gift shop operates 52 weeks per year. Management chose a 390-unit lot size so that new orders can be placed less frequently.

Inventory manager for Home Depot is responsible for developing inventory policies for MRO inventory, including a special type of purified water to cool the factory’s machines. The water costs $4 a gallon. The cost to hold it in inventory is about 25% of the purchase cost. Because of the refrigerated trucks necessary for transportation, shipping costs are $8 per order. Each year, the factory uses 1,000 gallons of this purified water, which is not expected to change. How many gallons should Home Depot order each time to minimize total annual variable cost?
