Answer:Safety stock= 26 units  

Explanation:

Annual demand = 1,000

Working days = 250 days per year

Demand per day = 1000/ 250 = 4 units per day

Lead Time demand  = Lead time x Average sales per day

= 6 days lead time x 4 units per day = 24 units

reorder point= Lead time demand + Safety stpock

Safety stock = Reorder point - lead time demand

=  50 - 24 units

Safety stock= 26 units
