For the inventory simulation of Sec. 1.5, suppose that the inventory is perishable, having a shelf life distributed uniformly between 1.5 and 2.5 months. That is, if an item has a shelf life of l months, then l months after it is placed in inventory it spoils and is of no value to the company. (Note that different items in an order from the supplier will have different shelf lives.) The company discovers that an item is spoiled only upon examination before a sale. If an item is determined to be spoiled, it is discarded and the next item in the inventory is examined. Assume that items in the inventory are processed in a FIFO manner. Repeat the nine simulation runs and assume the same costs as before. Also compute the proportion of items taken out of the inventory that are discarded due to being spoiled.
