An estimated shortfall by article and time period is first computed. Then, based on the estimated shortfall, etc., an expected profit of each of the first through m-th ordered pieces of each article is computed, and sorted in order from the highest expected profit. Based on the sorting result, for example, an order pattern with which the highest profit can be expected in the order budget is presented. The above mentioned process can be separately performed between weekdays and holidays if the sales characteristics are different between them.
