Calculate an economic order quantity estimate from annual demand, order cost, and holding cost.
Supports MOQ, lot rounding, batch paste, shareable URLs, and CSV export.
Demand 12,000 / order cost 5,000 / holding rate 25% / unit cost 800 / MOQ 500 / lot 50
Theoretical EOQ about 774.6 / recommended quantity 800 / 15.0 orders per year / annual EOQ-related cost about 155,000
Demand 6,000 / order cost 3,000 / holding cost per unit per year 150 / no MOQ
Theoretical EOQ and recommended quantity match, even when you do not know the rate

List theoretical EOQ, recommended quantity, order frequency, and notes for each SKU
The niðurstaða updates automatically without a calculate button.
Empty inntak shows a clear placeholder instead of misleading zeroes.
See the practical quantity after MOQ and lot constraints next to the theoretical EOQ.
Paste directly from Excel or a spreadsheet.
CSV and TSV are detected automatically.
Fix wrong guesses through column kortlagning when needed.
Missing values and warnings are skýrslaed in row-level notes while the other rows still calculate.
A holding cost rate is an annual estimate of storage, insurance, interest, obsolescence, and related costs relative to birgðir value.
A common starting range is about 10% to 30% per year, but the right number varies widely by vara and storage conditions.
If you are unsure, start around 20% and test how sensitive the niðurstaða is.
If you do not know the rate at all, enter holding cost per unit per year directly.
The economic order quantity that balances ordering cost against holding cost.
The minimum order quantity required by a birgi or ordering condition.
An annual estimate of carrying cost relative to birgðir value, including storage, capital cost, insurance, and obsolescence.
The order increment used for packaging, case packs, inner cartons, or birgi rules.
A common starting range is about 10% to 30% per year. If you are unsure, start around 20% and adjust after checking how sensitive the niðurstaða is.
It rounds the EOQ to the birgi or packaging increment. In most practical cases, rounding up is the safest default because it avoids short ordering.
Yes. Paste an Excel or spreadsheet tafla into the Batch tab and the verkfæri will calculate multiple SKUs at once.
No. EOQ optimizes order quantity, not reorder timing. Reorder points and safety birgðir still need to be designed separately when demand and afgreiðslutími vary.
Yes. Change the quantity unit label in Settings to cases, packs, kg, or another unit. The EOQ calculation itself is unit-agnostic.
