Inventory Policy Simulator

The concept

(s,Q) and (R,S) policies decide when and how much to order under uncertain demand.

How it works

Simulated demand draws hit the policy; service level and cost emerge over many cycles.

Winning strategy

Set the reorder point from lead-time demand plus safety stock, then tune Q for cost.

reorder point s = d x L + z sigma sqrt(L)
