The actual usage for grain depends on which llamas show up at feeding time, thus there is an average need for 50 pounds of grain each day with a standard deviation of five pounds. In addition, there is some variability in how long it takes the feed store to whip up a batch of llama feed. The standard deviation of the feed prep is one day. The farm is willing to tolerate a 2% chance of running out of feed before they can get some more hauled in. Which adjustment to their system would have the greatest impact on the reorder point? A. increase the standard deviation of daily demand to 10 pounds O B. reduce the average daily demand to 45 pounds O c. lower the standard deviation of the lead time to one half of a day OD. decrease the service level to 90
