This paper presents the use of Palisade @RISK simulation and RISKOptimizer to minimize the expected cost of inventory per period over a long time horizon. An (s, S) ordering policy will be used in this analysis. In an (s, S) ordering policy, an order is placed at the beginning of any period in which beginning inventory is less than s. The order size is the amount needed to bring the inventory level up to S. This paper illustrates a comparison between the use of @RISK simulation with trial values of (s, S) and the use of RISKOptimizer to find optimal values of (s, S) that minimize the expected cost of inventory over a period of time in a periodic review inventory model.
