Problem:

An important aspect of optimizing the fish finger production line is developing an inventory policy for raw materials used in the production process (oil, breadcrumbs, boxes, etc). A Lowliner food is considering three new policies inventories (EOQ, S-s, and S-R) and has Eddie to modify his simulation model to evaluate them. Eddie executes ten replications of his model under each inventory scenario and records the average daily inventory cost (in $Can). Results from the three models appear below:

Assume that Eddie wishes to identify the best possible policy (where lower cost is considered better). Moreover, assume that Lowerliner wants to be 90% certain (i.e. a = 0.10) that the selected policy is the best. Using this information, can any of the three policies be identified as "best"?
