After completing the preliminary analysis, another option is considered: a Just In Time $($JIT$)$ Inventory

System. Here, if Seaton can plan ahead and estimate its need for the upcoming year, the supplier can

ship units on a daily basis thus eliminating the accumulation of inventory. If Seaton adopts JIT, the

order quantity would be only $50$ units per order $(18,000/360).$ Given the standing order, ordering costs

would shrink to just $$100/$order and holding costs would be eliminated. With JIT, Seaton will pay cash

upfront for all orders, but is offered no discount
