Compassion Co manufactures Megs. The management has decided to introduce a system of inventory control and in future will only produce batches of Megs of a size determined by the Economic Order Quantity formula.

Megs are stored in a warehouse rented by Compassion Co for $5 per square foot per annum. Space available exceeds current requirements and the surplus can be re-let on annual contracts at $8 per square foot. Each Meg occupies 4 square feet of warehouse space. To produce a Meg incurs variable costs of $20. The manufacture and storage of Megs is financed by a bank overdraft on which interest of 15% per annum is charged.

Compassion Co insures all inventory and pays a premium of 5% of the total average value of inventories to do this.
