This was an OOP design and implementation interview question, which I came across on glassdoor.com.

Design and implement a inventory management system to minimize the number of 
missed delivery dates while keeping costs to the company low.

Of course there is no right answer to this, but I am not sure I understand the question correctly and am wondering what would be a good answer.

Is this as simple as creating an undirected graph with nodes as the delivery points, and edges having weights as the cost of the delivery, and then use a single-source-shortest-path algorithm (like Dijkstras, or Bellman-Ford) on the graph?

Not sure if this type of question should be asked here,so let me know and I will delete it.
