Answer:

$1,000

Explanation:

For computing the total cost of ordering cost and the carrying cost first we have to find out the economic order quantity is shown below:  

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}[/tex]

where,

Annual demand = 5,000

Ordering cost per order = $5

Holding cost per bag per year = $20

After solving this the units is 50

Now the total cost is

= Annual ordering cost + Annual carrying cost

= Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × ordering cost per order + Economic order quantity ÷ 2 × carrying cost per unit  

=5,000 ÷ 50 × $5 + 50 ÷ 2 × $20

= $500 + $500

= $1,000
