Answer:
Safety Stock is 336.62 units
Explanation:
As per given data
Demand = D = 50,000
Ordering Cost = S = $35
Holding Cost = H = $1 per unit per year
Weekly Demand = Demand / 50 weeks = 50,000 / 50 = 1,000 units per week
Weekly Demand during Lead time of 3 weeks = 1000 x 3 = 3,000 units
Standard Deviation = 216.51 units
Desired Service level = 94%
The Z score at 94% service level is 1.55477
Safety Stock = Zscore x standard deviation = 1.55477 x 216.51
Safety Stock = 336.62

Option # 4: In an administered vertical marketing system or co-ordinated system of distribution channel organization, the flow of products from producer to end-user is controlled by the power and size of one member of the channel system rather than by common ownership or contractual ties. So this is not the correct option.
