Loebuck Grocery orders milk from a dairy on a weekly basis. The manager of the store has developed the following probability distribution for demand per week (in cases):

Demand (cases) Probability 15 .20 16 .25 17 .40 18 .15 1.00 The milk costs the grocery $10 per case and sells for $16 per case. The carrying cost is $0.50 per case per week, and the shortage cost is $1 per case per week. Simulate the ordering system for Loebuck Grocery for 20 weeks.
