Consider a generalization of the inventory model of Sec. 3.2 in which unfilled orders may be backlogged indefinitely with a cost of b(u) if u units are backlogged for one period. Assume revenue is received at the end of the period in which orders are placed and that backlogging costs are charged only if a unit is backlogged for an entire month, in which case the backlogging cost is incurred at the beginning of that month. a. Identify the state space and derive transition probabilities and expected rewards.

An airline's public relations department says that the airline rarely loses passengers' luggage. It further claims that on those occasions when luggage is lost, 92 % 92% is recovered and delivered to its owner within 24 hours. A consumer group who surveyed a large number of air travelers found that only 137 of 169 people who lost luggage on that airline were reunited with the missing items by the next day. Does this cast doubt on the airline's claim? Explain
