    Logistics planner forecasts that the expected annual demand for radio batteries will be 20,000 units. The analysis suggests that there is an 80% probability that the value will be between 15,000 and 25,000 units. And a plot of the underlying data indicates that the demand curve is for all practical purposes a normal curve. (Numeric answers to three decimal points.)
