In this keynote video we will show how to apply the Quantity Discount Model.
To determine the optimal order size (at which the sum of the total inventory and ordering costs is minimal), we apply the Economic Order Quantity (EOQ) model. This model assumes that the purchasing costs are constant. In case however we are dealing with quantity discounts, we need to apply the Quantity Discount Model (QDM) instead.
