    Explanation:

    Given that

    Annual Demand = 10 bottles in 1 minute

    Leading time = 60 minute

    percentage of Safety stock = 0.2

    Container size = 130 bottles

    The computation of the number of kanban cards is given below:-

    = Annual demand * Leading time (1 + percentage of safety stock) : Container size

    = 10 * 60 (1 + 0.2) : 130

    = 600 (1.2) : 130

    = 5.538

    So, the round-up the next whole number is 6
