A product’s demand over (l + 1) periods is normally distributed with a mean of 100 and standard deviation of 10. Lead time is 2 periods. The order-up-to model is used to manage inventory. If in-stock probability stays at 99%, what will happen to expected on-hand inventory when expected demand increases to 200?
A) It will increase.
B) It will stay the same.
C) It will decrease.
D) It may either increase or decrease.
