Flag Sport Obermeyer (SO) is a manufacturer of ski apparel. A
ski jacket is sourced at a cost of $80 and sold for $125. One order
is placed at the beginning of the season. Currently, SO disposes of
any unsold jackets at the end of the season to outlet stores at
$70. It costs $10 to hold a jacket in inventory for the entire
season and then ship it to an outlet store. Demand for ski jackets
has been forecast to be normally distributed, with a mean of 4,000
and standard deviation of 1,750.
What is the expected overstock at the end of the season
that will be sent to outlet stores?
