In cost accounting, the 'Economic Batch Quantity' (EBQ) formula is identical to the EOQ formula. If the setup cost per batch is ₹500, annual demand is 10,000 units, and carrying cost is ₹10 per unit per annum, what is the EBQ?
A. 1,414 units
B. 1,000 units
C. 500 units
D. 2,000 units
Answer: Option B
Solution (By JKSSB Mock Tests)
EBQ = Square root of (2 * Annual Demand * Setup Cost) / Carrying Cost per unit. EBQ = sqrt((2 * 10,000 * 500) / 10) = sqrt(1,000,000) = 1,000 units.
