A manufacturer of hospital supplies has a uniform annual demand for 80,000 boxes of

bandages. It costs $10 to store one box of bandages for one year and $160 to set up
the plant for prduction. Haw many times a year should the company produce boxes
of bandages in order to minimize the total storage and setup costs?

Seems like we need to know something about the production of bandages. Is it continuous? Instant batches of some fixed number? Production over a period of days?

Is the consumption to be considered a continuous function?

I see no way to solve this with the information given.
60 times a year
