Answer:

B) $800

Explanation:

In order to determine the total cost first we have to find the economic order quantity which is shown below:

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{Annual demand}\times \text{Ordering cost}}{\text{Carrying cost}}}[/tex]

[tex]= \sqrt{\frac{2\times \text{4,000}\times \text{\$20}}{\text{\$4}}}[/tex]

= 200 units

Now total cost is

= Ordering cost + holding cost

= (Annual demand ÷ Economic order quantity × Ordering cost per order) + (Economic order quantity ÷ 2  Holding cost per unit)  

= (4,000 units ÷ 200 units × $20) + (200 units ÷ 2 × $4)

= $400 + $400

= $800
