EOQképlet
The EOQ képlet, or the Economic Order Quantity formula, is a foundational model in inventory management used to determine the optimal order size that minimizes total annual inventory costs. It seeks to balance the fixed cost of placing orders with the variable cost of holding inventory.
The standard formula is Q* = sqrt( (2 D S) / H ), where D is the annual demand
Commonly used assumptions include constant and known demand, fixed ordering cost, constant lead time, no stockouts,
Variants and extensions address practical complexities, such as quantity discounts (to reflect lower unit costs at
