How to use Economic Order Quantity Calculator

Continuous EOQ is sqrt(2DS/H). Compare ordering plus holding cost DS/Q+HQ/2 at adjacent positive whole quantities.

  1. Enter annual unit demand, cost per order, annual holding cost per unit.
  2. Check the model, units, and supported limits before calculating.
  3. Run the tool, inspect the result, then copy or download it.

Good to know

  • Positive annual demand, cost per order, and annual holding cost per unit. Stationary demand, no shortages or quantity discounts. Whole quantity must be a safe integer.
  • Runs locally. Numeric inputs are bounded; floating-point output is approximate and rounded to 12 significant digits. Unsupported or non-finite calculations produce an error.
  • Educational user-assumption arithmetic only. No live rates, tax rules, financial advice, or outcome guarantees.
