Optimal supply against fluctuating demand
  Sornette et al. claimed that the optimal supply does not agree with the average demand, by analyzing a bakery model where a daily demand fluctuates with a uniform distribution. In this note, we extend the model to general probability distributions, and obtain the formula of the optimal supply for Gaussian distribution, which is more realistic. Our result is useful in a real market to earn the largest income on average.
