At the beginning of each year, the hospital has the opportunity to pre-order anti-venom kits at cost of $350 each. Treating each snake-bite case requires one anti-venom kit. The kits expire after one year, after which any unused kits must be disposed of at a cost of $10 each. If the hospital runs out of pre- ordered anti-venom kits before the end of the year, it may immediately obtain a functionally equivalent packet of medications from a local pharmacy, but the cost is $500 per case treated.

Required:
Assuming the past data presented above are representative of the number of snake-bite cases that may be expected in the future, how many anti-venom kits should the hospital pre-order each year?
