Demand during leadtime for CD-ROM drives averages 80units ( normally distributed), with a standard deviation of 8 drives. Mr. Smith, the purchasing manager, is willing to accept a stockout risk of no more than 3 percent. What is the appropriate reorder point ( Z = 1.88)?
Given data:
Mean Demand (µ) = 80 units
Standard Deviation (σ) = 8
Maximum Stockout risk = 3 %
Z = 1.88
Safety stock = x - µ

Safety stock = z * σ = 1.88 * 8 = 15.04
Reorder point = Expected demand during lead time + Safety stock = Mean demand + Safety stock = 80 + 15.04 = 95.04

Suppose the manager of a construction supply house determined from historical records that the lead time demand for sand averages 49 tons. In addition, suppose the manager determined that demand during lead time could be described by a normal distribution that has a mean of 49 tons and a standard deviation of 6 tons. If the manager is willing to accept a service risk of no more than 3 percent:What value of z is appropriate? How much safety stock should...
