Right Answer:
To calculate safety stock for consumption-based planning, use the formula:
Safety Stock = Z * σL
Where:
- Z = Z-score (based on desired service level)
- σL = Standard deviation of demand during the lead time
You can also consider average demand and lead time variability in your calculations.
