Minimize the total cost.

Suppose we are considering the question of how much capacity to build in the face of uncertain demand. Assume that the cost is $20 per unit of lost sales due to insufficient capacity. Also assume that there is a cost of $7 for each unit of capacity built. The probability of various demand level is as follows:

How many units of capacity should be built to minimize the total cost of providing capacity plus lost sales?
