Avery Grocery Store is the only grocery store in Rayville, a small town populated mostly by college students. Students have been complaining lately because Avery always runs out of macaroni and cheese, the students' favorite food. Avery management decides it needs to calculate a more suitable reorder point. Information about the macaroni and cheese is as follows:

1. What should be the reorder point if Avery does not want to maintain any safety stock?
2. What should be the reorder point if Avery wants to maintain a safety stock of 1,000 boxes of macaroni andcheese?
