The profits from sales of a product depend on demand, which follows a normal distribution. The demand in week 1 has a distribution with mean 1000 and standard deviation 100. The demand in week 2 has mean 1010.
a) Suppose that the standard deviation of demand in week 2 is 100. Explain why or why not the profit in week 2 stochastically dominates the profit in week 1.

Suppose the daily demand of a product follows a normal distribution with the mean of 50 units and the standard deviation of 10 units. Lead time is 9 days. The ordering cost is $400 per order, and the inventory holding cost is $20 per unit per year. A cycle service level (probability of no stockout) of 95% is required. Using the fixed order quantity model, what is the reorder point? 500 450 O 720 630 MRP is a technique designed...

4. Suppose profits from investments in individual stocks follow a normal distribution with mean $100 and standard deviation $300. If you buy a single stock, selected at random, what is the probability that your profit is greater than zero? If you are buying a portfolio of 25 randomly selected stocks, what is the probability that your average profit is greater than zero?
