Answer:

26 packages

Explanation:

Given that:

The demand D = 186 packages in a week

Standard deviation  = 13packages

The lead time L = 1.5 weeks

Order quantity Q = 750 packages

The Confidence service Level = 0.95

At the service level (SL) if we find the P(Z) of the SL using Excel, we have:

P(Z) = NORMSINV(0.95)

P(Z) = 1.64

Thus;

the safety stock = Z × SD√L

= 1.64 \times 13 \sqrt{1.5} \\ \\

= 1.64 \times 13 (1.224745)

= 1.64\times15.92

= 26.11156

≅ 26 packages
