◦ 15 units.
◦ 154 units.
◦ 13,125 units.
◦ 100 units.

◦ a stockout can occur during the review period as well as during the lead time.
◦ replenishment is not instantaneous.
◦ this model is used for products that have large standard deviations of demand.
◦ this model is used for products that require very high service levels.
◦ setup costs and holding costs are large.
