MODEL: DATA: ! The average demand; MU = 144; ! Opportunity cost of each unit of lost demand; P = 11; ! Cost/unit of excess inventory; H = 5; ENDDATA ! Calculate the order-up-to point, S, using the newsboy problem equation; @PPS( MU, S) = P / ( P + H); ! PS is the expected profit of being at S; PS = P * MU - H * (S -MU) - (P + H) * @PPL(MU, S); END
