Calculadora de Ponto de Reposição — Formula
## How to Calculate the Reorder Point
### Formula
**Reorder Point = (Daily Demand x Lead Time) + Safety Stock**
The reorder point tells you exactly when to trigger a new purchase order. When inventory drops to this level, it is time to order. The lead time demand component covers expected usage during the wait for delivery. Safety stock provides a buffer against demand spikes or supplier delays. Setting the right reorder point prevents both stockouts and excess inventory.

Exemplo Resolvido
A product sells 40 units per day, the supplier takes 7 days to deliver, and you maintain 50 units of safety stock.
- Lead Time Demand = 40 x 7 = 280 units
- Reorder Point = 280 + 50 = 330 units
- Place a new order when inventory hits 330 units.
