Inventory growth
Inventories should grow at slower rate than sales.
Why? Order quantities are proportional to the square root of sales.
Example:
One inventory item K=1 Q$ = K (demand in $)1/2 Sales Growth --100% Average Investment 10/2 = 5 14/2 = 7 Investment Growth --40%

Check stock balance on a periodic schedule If stock on hand below reorder point, place new order: in a fixed amount, or in a variable amount (maximum level on hand)
Investment requirements
Periodic review always requires more investment than continuous review to meet any customer service goal.
