Example 2 : Define the economic order quantity (EOQ) for a mechanical firm that
supports a contractor on development of 4,500 homes a year for water heating
systems. The cost of purchasing each water heater is $250. The storage cost for
the water heaters is $36 per year for space and financing. Furthermore, calculate
the computing reorder point (RP) for the water heaters. Based on water heater
per home of 90 per day and lead time is 10 days, the safety level of stock is 250
