Answer:

the re-order point is 97.17

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the re-order point is given below:

Re-order point is

= (Daily demand × Lead time) + (Z × Standard deviation × Sqrt(Lead time)

= (25 × 3) + (1.28 × 10 × Sqrt(3))

= 97.17

hence, the re-order point is 97.17

The same is to be considered and relevant too
