Sidana [21]

Answer: 90.32%

Explanation:

Weekly demand (d) = 120

Standard deviation = 10

Lead time (l) = 4

Reorder point = 506

The reorder point is calculated as:

506 = 120 × 4 + Z × 10 × ✓4

Solving for Z will give us 1.3

Then, we check this in the z table which will give us p = 0.9032

Therefore, the service level is 90.32%.
