Beekeeping Reorder-Point Inventory Lab (2D)

2D (Q,R) reorder-point inventory lab for a small beekeeping business: set weekly demand, order quantity, supplier lead time and reorder point, and watch a scrolling stock chart and honey-jar silo respond, with stockouts and service level tracked live.

This 2D companion runs the same (Q, R) reorder-point inventory logic as the 3D honey-jar silo simulation through a plain scrolling chart built for reading the numbers rather than watching a silo animate: a honey-jar bar shows the current stock level next to a live time-series chart plotting stock on hand against the reorder point, with order-placed and order-arrived events marked and stockout periods shaded, so you can directly see how weekly demand, order size, supplier lead time and the reorder point trade off against stockouts and cash tied up in inventory.

⚙ Under the hood

2D (Q,R) reorder-point inventory lab: stock drains at the weekly demand rate, an order of size Q is placed automatically once stock falls to the reorder point R, and it arrives after the supplier's lead time — sometimes too late to avoid a stockout.
