A bakery buys flour in 25-pound bags. The bakery uses 1,215 bags a year. Ordering cost is $10 per order. Annual carrying cost is $75 per bag.

You have calculated an EOQ of 18 bags. At that quantity your supplier's sales price is $4 per bag

The supplier tells you that if you buy in quantities of 25 bags, you will only have to pay $3.75 per bag

If total cost is your primary concern, should you buy in quantities of 25?
