Cost of Trade Credit
Pay on Day 40 12.29%
Pay on Day 60 7.37%
So, there is an incentive to pay late that the seller must counter.
The cost of foregoing the discount must be higher that cost of short-term borrowing or the buyer will use the trade credit as a loan.

Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) Model
Let S = constant usage rate of the inventory F = fixed cost of ordering inventory C = carrying cost per unit of inventory for the
period. Q = units of inventory ordered.

EOQ Model
Average inventory = Q/2 = 475/2 = 237.5 units.
Number of orders per year = S/Q = 10,000/475 = 21.
Time between orders = Q/S = (475/21)(365) = 17.34 days.

EOQ Model
Annual ordering cost = F(S/Q) = $45(10,000/475) = $947 per year.
Annual holding cost = C(Q/2) = $4(475/2) = $950 per year.
Total annual cost = $947 + $950 = $1,897 per year.

Just-In-Time (JIT) Inventory Systems
Materials should arrive exactly as they are needed in the production process. Reduces inventory holding costs
Important factors determining success of JIT systems: Planning requirements Supplier relations Setup costs Other cost factors Impact on credit terms
