******need an executive summery based on this question and the two excel spreadsheets*******


ABC Company stocks and ships to their retailers a product (KB456) each week. The Product
KB456 costs $150 per unit and is sold to the retailers for $230 per unit. Units not sold during
one week are held over and sold the next week at a cost of $15 per unit, charged on beginning
inventory. The company also charges itself $12 per unit for any lost sales. The fixed cost for the
operations is $2,000 per week. The company wants to maximize profits.
The demand for product KB456 follows a uniform distribution with a minimum of 150 units and
a maximum of 200 units. The company is considering three possible order levels. These are
170, 175, or 180 units per week. Beginning inventory is zero.
