What is the economic order quantity for the biscuits? )(**) Suppose Ollah decides to order 200 bags at a time. What would the total ordering and holding costs for the year be? (For this problem, don't consider safety stock when calculating holding costs.)

uses a continuous inventory review system to manage inven-
