Weekly demand for a product is 250 units with a standard deviation of 60 units (assume 52 weeks per year). Lead-time is 3 weeks. Calculate the safety stock and the reorder point for 98 percent service level.

Explanation:

Data provided in the question

Weekly demand for a product = 250 units

Standard deviation = 60 units

Lead time = 3 weeks

Service level = 98%

And, the service factor from the normal distribution is 2.05

Now the

Safety stock = Service factor × standard deviation × √lead time

= 2.05 × 60 × 1.73

= 212.79

Now the reorder point is

= Weekly demand × lead time + safety stock

= 250 units × 3 weeks + 212.79

= 962.79

the correct answer is:

it required the president to inform congress within forty-eight hours of any new troop commitment.

the war powers resolution (1973) is a federal law designed to limit the u.s. president’s ability to initiate or intensify military actions abroad without the approval of the congress.

it establishes that the president can send armed forces into action abroad only by declaration of war by congress, statutory authorization, or in case of a national emergency created by attack upon the united states, its territories or possessions, or its armed forces.

it requires the president to notify congress within 48 hours of sending armed forces to military action.
