Answer:

6,100 spatulas

Explanation:

The reorder point for spatulas is determined by the daily demand multiplied by the lead time, in days, and then added to the required safety stock.

With a daily demand of 400 spatulas, a lead time of 14 days and a safety stock of 500 spatulas, the reorder point is:

[tex]R=(D*T) +S\\R=(400*14)+500\\R=6,100\ spatulas[/tex]

The reorder point is 6,100 spatulas.
