Consider the company in Task 3 planning its inventory system over the next n months. The sizes of the demands at each point of time, D ( t ), are IID random variables (independent of when the demands occur), and distributed uniformly within the range [0, 100]. At the beginning of each month, the company reviews the inventor level and decides how many items to order from its supplier. As before, if the company orders Z items, it incurs a cost of K+iZ, where K=35 is the setup cost and i=4 is the incremental cost per item ordered. (If Z=0, no cost is incurred.)
