Using the Beer Game Analysis answer the following questions...

Name; Role you played (Retailer, wholesaler, distributor, factory) and Team number 1. How did your team make your first few decisions? What seemed most important at that time? 2. How did you make decisions at the end? How did your decision process change? 3. You were not allowed to talk to your supply chain partners. If this were possible, what information would be most useful to share? Who would be best positioned to make decisions (which role)? 4. In this game, thePER UNIT holding cost of inventory was the same at all stages ($1 per unit per period). In reality, per-unit holding costs are usually highest at the retailer. Why? 5. If you could replay the game (without communication) what would you and your partner do differently? Why would that improve your result?
