Consider the following data.

Inventory Item Average Demand (Annual) Sigma (Std. Dev.) of Demand During Lead Time Item Unit Cost

F-11001 15,000 100 $250.00

K-12002 100,000 300 $2.00

L-13003 250,000 200 $0.20

N-14004 300,000 400 $1.00

P-21001 50,000 60 $125.00

S-22002 80,000 75 $30.00

 Note: All items are independent demand items.

Based on the above data:

• Calculate the safety stock quantities and the inventory cost associated with safety stock (based on the item unit cost) for the inventory items at four different service levels (50%, 80%, 90%, and 95%).

• Develop a table to present the inventory quantities and the safety stock costs at each service level.

• Assuming that demand occurs at a steady pace every month (in other words, there is no seasonality or cyclical change in the level of demand), calculate the reorder point for each item assuming a lead time of two months and a service level of 90%.

Develop a table to present the reorder points for all products under these conditions (two month lead time and service level of 90%).
