At the end of the week unsold milk is reduced in price by 70 and always sells for this lower price instantly.
If weekly demand for milk is normally distributed with a mean of 200 gallons and standard deviation of 25 gallons, find the price for which a fresh gallon of milk sells. Assume a service level of 95 and that the store purchases milk for 2 per gallon. Title: Milk is stocked at the grocery store each week. At the end of the week unsold milk is reduced in ... Post by: babyfacelove on Jan 30, 2018 Service level = Cs/(Cs + Co). If the selling price per gallon is X the salvage price is .3X. Thus, Cs = X-2 and Co = 2 - .3X. Solving .95 = X - 2/(X - 2 + 2 - .3X) gives X = 5.97, so the milk sells for 5.97 per gallon.
