Given this information: Expected demand duringGiven this information:
Expected demand during lead time = 330 units
Standard deviation of lead time demand = 40 units
Use Table.

Determine each of the following, assuming that lead time demand is distributed normally:

a.

The ROP that will provide a risk of stockout of 1 percent during lead time. (Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

ROP units

b.

The safety stock needed to attain a 1 percent risk of stockout during lead time. (Do not round intermediate calculations. Round your answer to the nearest whole number.)

Safety stock units

c-1. Would a stockout risk of 2 percent require more or less safety stock than a 1 percent risk?
More
Less

c-2.

Would the ROP be larger, smaller, or unaffected if the acceptable risk were 2 percent instead of 1 percent?

Smaller
Unaffected
Larger
