Example: Bart’s Barometer Business
Start with the first reorder period that is at least the Lead
time demand value as initial ROP
Safety Stock = reorder period used – lead time demand
# short = reorder period used – ROP column value
EAC = (# short)(SS)(stockout cost)(# of orders/year)
Cost of being out of stock = sum of EAC in the same ROP
ROP Sample Problem
COST OF SAFETY STOCK
Entries on ROP column and SS, for Cost of Safety Stock Table is just the same as the previous table
Cost of being out of stock = values on the last column of the previous table
ACC = (SS)(annual carrying cost)
Total cost per year = cost of being out of stock + annual carrying cost
Decision: ROP that will minimize the total cost per year
