taking the ratio of actual demand to forecast demand. The frequency distribution of historical errors is then compiled across items‚ for new and never out items separately‚ to form a probability distribution. The probability distribution is then used to predict errors for the future. The second step involves calculating the contribution margin if the unit is demanded and the loss if the unit has to be calculated. This is done to calculate the critical fractile for the demand which can be calculated
