Cost Comparison

Part Period Balancing

Simplicity in calculations.
Focus = Short run planning.

Least Unit Cost

Simple Computation.
Least Unit Cost.
Info about future demand must be known.
Minimized cost of lots only.
Costs differ from period to period.

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ)

Minimizes both ordering and holding cost at optimal

quantity Q*
Match customer demand.
Exact estimation of costs are difficult.
Does not allow combining several different products in the
same order.
Assumes Constant demand and disruptions in demand
change the results.

Silver Meal

Consider variable demand.


Easier to use than complex programming application

models.
More computations.
Ineffective if demand drops in future periods.
Decision depends upon future periods and demands.
