Answer:
False
Explanation:
If the demand is uncertain, if you use average demand to calculate the economic order quantity (EOQ), you will have a high probability of a stock-out occurring.
EOQ = √(2DS / H)
where:
D = annual demand in units
S = order cost per purchase order
H = holding cost per unit, per year
If D is uncertain, then the whole calculus will either be understated or overstated.
