A company produces sandals in four different patterns for summer. The demand for all four patterns is seasonal and normally distributed. Each of the four patterns has an expected demand of 10,000 pairs with a standard deviation of 4,000 pairs. Currently, all patterns are produced before the start of the season. Production cost is $20 per pair, and they are sold for a wholesale price of $36 per pair. Any unsold sandal at the end of the season is sold at discounted price of $15 per pair. It costs $1 per pair to hold the sandals in inventory for the entire season if it does not sell. The company is considering the postponement of printing the pattern of the sandals. This will require the base sandals to be made in advance (identical for each of the four models) and the final patterns to be printed later. This will increase production cost of sandals to $22. 5 per pair.
How many pairs of each pattern should the company make before postponement if the desired service level is 0.75?
