摘要：

This paper was motivated by a practical situation in the fast food industry. We consider the choice of the order quantities for a group of end items, each facing random demand in a period of interest. There is the additional option of having a limited number of units of unfinished stock that can be customized to produce any of the end items once demands materialize. Solution procedures are developed, the results of a large set of examples are presented, and a number of managerial insights are provided.
