Every 4 years, Blockbuster Publishers revises its textbooks. It has been 3
years since the best-selling book The Joy of Excel has been revised. At present
2000 copies of the book are in stock, and Blockbuster must determine how
many copies of the book to print for the next year. The sales department
believes that sales during the next year are governed by triangular distribution
with parameters 4000, 6000 and 9000. Each copy of Joy sold during the next
year brings the publisher a revenue of $35. Any copies left at the end of the
year cannot be sold at a full price but can be sold for $5 to Bonds Ennoble and
Gitano´s bookstores. The cost of printing of the book is $50,000 plus $15 per
book printed. Use simulation to help the publisher decide how many copies of
Joy to print.

Three ordering policies are under consideration:

Policy 1: Print 4000 copies. #ADDIN?
Policy 2: Print 5000 copies.
Policy 3: Print 6000 copies.
