26. ii. Economic Order Quantity A quantity at which the sum of ordering cost and carrying cost is minimum i.e., less than the total cost of ordering and carrying of any other quantity
27. Ordering Costs Cost of Placing an order Loading and Unloading of Goods Transportation Cost Insurance for Goods in Transit Cost of Receiving & Inspection Administrative Cost
29. iii. ABC Analysis Category A : 5-10% of Quantity and 70-85% of Value Category B: 20-30% 0f Quantity and 25-30% of Value Category C: 70 – 80% of Quantity and 5-10% of Value
30. Merits of ABC Control Close & Strict Control on Expensive items Ensuring sufficient stock Leading to Efficient Inventory Management Saving the time of the Management
34. Advantages of Perpetual Inventory System Early Discovery of Errors No Disruption in Production for Stock Taking Value of Stock on Any Day Excessive Stock is Avoided Prompt Inventory Information to the Mgt System of Internal Check Control over issue & Usage of Material Qualified Personnel to the Stores
